Oldsmobile Cutlass 442

No

That depends. '71 W30's were made at Lansing MI, so the VIN must have the M.

The VIN must be 344... or it's not a factory 442... HOWEVER, and beware here,

the BODY TAG, which is NOT the VIN... can be for a Cutlass body [336...] at least for the '68-9 Lansing built cars.

*THE* VIN is the dashboard sequence like

344671M001442

and all '68 thru '71 442's [and ONLY 442's] sport the "44" model series identifying digits.

take the brake line out of it and there are 2 bolts on the back of the wheel cylinder that come out and it's off.

Swivel sockets and a 2 foot extension usually works.

If I understand your question right, you should have 4 vacuum lines connected to it. The top one connects to the carb by the bowl area; the next one connects to the rear of the carb; the next one comes from the vacuum advance on the distributor and connects to the middle vacuum port on the TCS; the last one connects to the trans line and to the front of the intake manifold. You use a "T" in the line for this one. If you had a GM factory repair manual you'll find a drawing showing how the lines go. Check, YearOne, OPGI, the Parts Place, USA parts, Kanter auto parts, etc.

I believe it is .042 to .046 inch , but check your vehicle emission control information sticker in your engine compartment , somewhere ahead of your radiator or maybe on the fan shroud. (Helpfull)

I just replaced the 1157 bulb in the right rear housing of my '99 this week. The housing is held in by two screws in the side and another in the bottom dead center. after removing the screws the unit pulls stright out from the back. Be careul as there are two push in locator pins atached to the back of the housing. If you should break one off JB Weld works wonders...hint, hint. Once the light unit is loose you will see that the wiring harness socket is the only thing holding it in the truck. This is a plastic spring clip that releases at the bottom rear. Note that it only goes back in one way. With the wiring unplugged you can now take the light unit somewhere comfortable. you will see that the lens is held in from the back with screws. I hope his is helpul john

To find the paint and trim code for a specific model, you typically need to check the vehicle's manufacturer label, which is usually located on the driver's side door jamb or under the hood. The paint code is often a combination of letters and numbers that corresponds to the color of the vehicle, while the trim code indicates the interior materials and colors. If you have the make and model details, you may also be able to find this information on the manufacturer's website or by contacting a dealership.

They are not too hard to install if you are strong and not afraid to climb into the trunk. Requires two people to do it. One to hold the trunk up all the way and the other to get in and snap the spring back into place. You place the spring end in position first (hole located by the hinge), then locate the torsion end and pushup and back and snap it in place. The only hitch is if the spring didn't break and the bracket itself did, then you will need a body shop to reweld and repair the mounting bracket. Option #2, get a stick and use it to prop up and hold the trunk open when you are using it. Good Luck
