How do you fix your 1993 Grand-Am that stalls when put into gear?

Asked by Wiki User

my 93 grand am was doing something similar to the question you ask. It would drive fine at times and then it would die and when restarting would buck, jerk, etc. and had a had time restarting. After sitting it would seem fine. I had to have my crank case heater assembly replaced and now it seems to be running fine.

My 93 SOHC 2.3l did this and I replaced coil pack housing (Actually mechanics shop replaced after testing) and it fixed problem. These engines are notorious for cracked coil pack 'housing' because of coil on plug design the housing takes alot of heat. Let us know what fixed cause it helps others looking for answers. Good luck

It is possible the torque converter clutch is staying engaged, there is a solenoid in the transmission that sticks and wont let the converter release. there is also a plastic orifice that breaks off and becomes lodged in the solenoid causing the same problem. This usually can be distinguished from an engine problem by noting whether the engine runs normally until you actually put the car in gear

The hot wires are the ones with 12 volts running through them. You'll need a voltmeter to find them - they could be most any color, but seldom black, though.

How do you replace a timing belt on a 2 point 2 liter Dodge 94 Shadow?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If you have never done it, I suggest taking it to someone. However, if you have the tools and want to do it yourself. You will need to jack up the car first. Remove right front wheel. This is so you can get to all bolts on the front plastic cover. Remove the bolts, remove the cover/covers if 2 piece. Losen the timing belt tensioner, move away, take off belt, replace, tighten pretty tight with hand. Make sure no slack is present!But not extremely too tight. Retighten all bolts and covers and install wheel. NOTE: If timing belt was broken this is a whole different story. Do not try..Unless you know how..

This is a very dangerous repair unless you have the proper tools and skill. The fact that you ask the question would indicate you do not. Take it to a professional. Serious injury or death can occur if you do no know what you are doing.

How do you reset abs warning light on a 2003 corvette?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Bring to a shop that has an ABS scanner to see if there is a problem - if not have codes cleared

Often rebooting the computer by turning the ignition off then on several times will clear "glitches". Sometimes mine has had to cycle as meny as 20 times to clear a "false" signal.

What causes the Check Oil light to come on and the oil pressure to drop when the engine warms up on a 1993 Pontiac Grand Am?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If the main and/or rod bearings are worn, the oil pressure can't be maintained after the oil warms up and thins out. You might be able to get a little more life out of the engine by switching to a heavier weight engine oil.

It is possible also that just the oil pump has worn and can't produce enough pressure at idle. Very often, though, if the pump is worn, so are the bearings, and vice-versa.

Checking troubleshooting codes Pontiac grand Am Se without a code scanner?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It cannot be done, you must have a code reader because the system is OBD2, you used to be able to do it without a code reader, but that was OBD1, OBD2 is much more complicated electronics. If you want to get it scanned, you should go to Autozone, they will code scan for free but will not clear codes. You have to pay someone with a code reader to clear the codes, disconnecting the battery doesn't work either

What force causes a leaf to fall more slowly than a penny?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

We know that air resistance (or atmospheric drag) is what causes a leaf to fall more slowly than a penny. A large leaf that weighs a much as a penny has a much greater surface area than the penny, and all this surface area means that the leaf has more drag. Though the leaf and penny will be accelerated by the same amount of force (because they have the same mass), the leaf will present all that surface area to the air, and this will set up a condition of high drag.
