Oldsmobile Ciera

yes it is located on the top of the manifold, back side of the motor next to the throttle assembly shield. It is electronically controlled

yes

The 1994 Oldsmobile Cutlass cam sensor is located on the back of the left cylinder head. The cam sensor should be labeled as such.

the thing that causes a clunk when you turn means that the break pad isn't turning all the way with the car tire and it is slightly knocking on the inner tire or something along those lines

under the front of the car you'll see something that looks like a black tube it has a bolt on the back of it undo the bolt oil will drain out change the oil filter witch is by the belt on the motor it hard to get to but you can do it chang the filter bit the bolt back in and replace oil done

Under the hood. On the left side, right buy the timing belt.

The flasher unit is behind the fuse panel in the wiring harness. To get to it, open the glove box and unscrew the T-15 Torx internal drive screw from the tether. The glove box door will open far enough to reveal the bottom two 8mm hex head cap screws holding the fuse panel in on the left side of the glove box. Remove all four 8mm hex head cap screws and wiggle the fuse panel out. The flasher I removed was a yellow cylindrical Wagner model with two prongs. Use a straight blade screw drive to gently pry the connector off the flasher unit.

well for one make sure its not loose, ive had it happen alot, if it is broke any salvage yard or automotives store well have it, and you'll need to tear down both rear drums, look at wear the cable runs to tho first

Could be bad spark plug, spark plug coil, mismatched spark plug wire, or loose/broken motor mounts, or problem with head gasket.

Under the dashboard on the drivers side. I think its closer to the door than the center console.

Its in the engine compartment of the vehicle on the right hand side of the vehicle (your left) by the charcoal canister.

To adjust the throttle cable, first open the hood of the car and locate the cable. Then, adjust the screws on either side of the cable. Following that, tighten the cable so that it is taut and there is no slack, but it is not over tight.

this happened to my car and at first i thought it was the starter, but then i got a jump and it started. the next day i went to chekers and got the battery tested and the battery i had was supposed to be putting out 700 cold cranking amps (CCA's) and it wasnt so my battery was dead. even though my lights and radio turned on but the engine didnt start. so i would say go get it tested and get one with a warranty

I have had 2 of the 93 model and there is a sensor chip on the transmission that went bad in both cars that made my car die for no reason at every stoplight or just going down the road after about 15 minutes of driving. Dont take it to a transmission place they will try to sell you a whold new transmission. Just take it to the mechanic and it is a pretty cheapp easy fix. Only cost me about $120 for each car.

You answer is NO! You do not have to take the heads off. What you will have to do is, remove the front valve cover and loosen that back one. It is best to take them both off but you can get away with just loosening the back valve cover. The valve cover on most models will have a different kind of bolt that connects it to the head. On the rear, if you choose to leave it on, you will have to loosen the bolts through it and pry it back a little bit so you can get the intake out. The bolts do not come all the way out. They are held in with a rubber grommet. You save a lot of time by leaving the alternator on and not taking the rear valve cover off. I am not sure if you have ever done one of these or not, but once you get the intake off, get prepared for a stupid engineering idea by out fellas at general motors. They have the intake gasket inter twined with the push rods. You will have to remove all the push rods that run in front of the gasket. This might not make a hole lot of sense until you actually get the intake off and see for yourself. This is where you may have a problem with the rear valve cover still being on the car. You may have to turn the motor so you will be able to get the nut off the rocker with a wrench. OR, do what I did, make my own specialty tool out of a 13mm wrench. Almost looked like a distributer wrench when I was done. Worked great!!

There is a specialty tool available for removing the push rods without removing the rear valve cover, ignition coil, alternator, rockers etc. More info at DenLorstools.com Tech Articles GM intake gasket replacement tips.

I would suggest you invest in a repair manual. It cost around $12 at most auto parts stores, and will contain the info you need to complete this repair and many others. It will pay for itself with this one repair

Code 42 on an Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera means you have a faulty ignition control module. You should inspect all electrical connectors to ensure they are tight.

In dash, if you don't have subscription to an on line mech. Program, buy the detailed Elect .Diagram schematic at auto store for 86 Old's. Good luck !

There is no transmission drain plug. You have to drop the entire pan to change the fluid. Always change the filter while you have the pan off and clean any metal shavings from the pan.

remove tires, remove both caliper bridge bolts, put caliper on upper control arm, remove rotor, take out lower ball joint bolt, using pry bar or pipe separate lower ball joint, if not lose already use pickle fork or a bar to put pressure and separate, move steering knuckle away from lower ball joint, use air hammer or equiv. and push rivets out of ball joint. once all three rivets are pressed out ball joint will fall out and re install.

install ball joint, some come with bolts and nuts. factory control arm will only come with new riveted ball joint. put bolts and nuts on new ball joint, tighten install zerx fitting, re-attach steering kuckle to ball joint by pushing down on the lower control arm and then forward on the knuckle. to align ball joint with hole on knuckle. re-install new ball joint bolt. once tight grease zerx fitting. re install rotor, caliper ect.

it should be a 15 mm bolt. that's what it is on my 91 cutlass supreme and my 93 beretta.

Hello,, According to a service manual I have here, the firing order should be - 1-6-5-4-3-2 , Front Bank 1-3-5, Rear Bank 2-4-6. .

There are adjustment screws on the top and side of the headlights. To get to the screws you will have to take the side turn signals off with a star-driver and 3 star screws. Then unbolt the headlight bracket and pull the assembly out. On the top you'll notice 2 more star screws - the one above the low beam adjusts the horizontal adjustment, above the high beam adjusts vertically. You'll have to bolt them back on to check the adjustment, then unbolt and adjust and check again. It takes a while.

most likely in the glove box, under driver's side dash, under hood or in trunk
