How do you remove ecm on a 92 olds cutlass supreme?
The ECM is located under the coolant reserve tank and mounted to the front of the strut tower. Only a single nut holds it in place. once you remove the nut simply pull it out.
Where is thermostat on 97 grand am 2.4?
Follow the upper radiator hose, where it goes into the housing on the engine, sometimes, you have to remove the water pump on these critters to replace the thermostat.
Where is the starter on a '94 Cutlass Supreme located?
the starter on a 96 cavy should be to the right of the exhaust manifold when looking down on the engine. the starter if you pop the hood and it is on the bottom side in the front where the engine and transmition bolt together
Where is the engine fan relay located on a 1993 Pontiac Grand Am?
You are probably having the same problem I'm having right now. My relay is located under the hood on the fire wall. If your car is like mine you will see a group of relay (5 I think) the one you is looking for is the second one from the left.
Where can you find the fuse diagram for a 1988 Olds Cutlass?
I have the same car- I'm not sure exactly what you mean by the fuse diagram. The fuse panel is located inside the glove box to the left. Each fuse location is clearly identified for tail lights, wipers, etc. The only one that appears to be missing is the fuse receptacle for the blower fan ( even though it is indicated in writing on the panel). You might have to order a trouble shooting guide for your make or model or just call a dealer's part Dept. and ask them. Good luck.
What would cause a loud popping noise just before the car starts?
Is it a boom? If so, then the car is getting too much gas when you start it. Check the fuel injector(s) and the carburator.
If this noise is like a loud ticking at a fast pace, it would be your starter going bad. If the noise is a loud boom/pop sound from the rear of the car, it would possibly be that the exhaust is backfiring..... not sure how to fix that aspect to fix the issue.
experts said to much gas at starting...they all were wrong.car had a old battery..put in a new one and problem fixed

The relay that handles the turn signals is separate from the relay that handles the hazards.
Most likely you have a burned out turn signal relay. Most likely the relay is located in your fuse panel and is a very inexpensive item to replace.
turn signals and hazards have separate flasher cans both look the same and are generally in the fuse box replace the hazard flasher can. they cost about 2 dollars at auto store
HOUNDDAWG ADDS:
There may be a lamp with one of the turn signal elements burned out. If one is burned out turn signals may not work even though the lamp appears to be working when the lights are on.
Otherwise replace emergency flasher or possibly turn signal switch in steering wheel.
gaffer0118 adds:
I had the same problem on my 2003 Saturn L200. When I cycled the Hazard Signal/switch for about 30 seconds, both left and right turn signals once again worked!!
Probably about 7.5 to 8 sec in stock form.
No such thing... haha someone's probally playing with you... it's like a flux capacitor or muffler bearing it's something that doesn't exist
How do you replace a radio antenna on a Cutlass Supreme?
To replace the radio antenna on a Cutlass Supreme, first, locate the antenna mount, usually found on the fender or rear of the vehicle. Remove any trim or covers if needed, then disconnect the old antenna by unscrewing it from the mount and unplugging the cable. Install the new antenna by reversing the removal process: attach the base, secure it with screws, and reconnect the antenna cable. Finally, replace any trim and test the radio for proper reception.

How do you change the rear three sparkplugs on a 98 grand am 31 l?
Remove the alternator and the bracket that holds the alternator to the engine. You can then 'reach' in there to get to the back plugs. It's difficult to do but I found this to be the only way I could do it on my old '90 Grand Prix.
Make sure the engine is cold before you change the plugs - DON'T STRIP THE THREADS IN THE HEAD by getting in a hurry. Park it overnight with the hood up in the garage or let it sit outside with the hood unlatched to cool.
Good Luck!
I have a 96 grand am 3.1 liter, and I don't need to remove the alternator to change the rear 3 plugs. What I do is remove the small air duct running from the alternator to where the hood meets the windshield. It should come off pretty easily. It has rubber ends which slide onto the alternator, and the vent by the windshield that it hooks up to. After that, disconnect all of the electrical plugs that meet up aroud the same spot that the air duct was and move them out of the way. In my experience, this has provided me with enough room to get a ratchet in there and remove the plugs. Try to use a socket specifically made for spark plugs, or you will spend a lot of time trying to get the plug in the hole. The spark splug socket has a rubber grip on it to hold on to the plug while you position it. If you don't do this, you will likely end up dropping the plug into the little area surrounding the plug hole, and it takes forever to get it out to try again. Also, when removing the old plugs, try to remember the angle that they went in on because you can't really see back there. It makes it a lot easier when inserting the new plugs if you get in there at the correct angle.
I agree with answer #2. I removed the same rubber attachment from the alternator and repositioned some wires. You really can't see anything down there so it is all done by feel. I got by with the spark plug socket, a knuckle/pivot socket and a few different extensions. The hardest part is finding the hole with the new plug, you can't even feel it with your finger it's so far back. Like he said, remember the angle and just feel around with the new plug.
I took the dogbones off and pulled the motor forward to make more rrom to reach the plugs. Takes time but works. bratt
Could be immobilizer damage, reversing the polarity on modern cars can cause the electronics to fry. Its possible to cross the starter switch wire out to see if engine will start when cranked,if so then its the starter blown but please be aware that you need to know what you are doing to do this as crossing any wires needs to be done by qualified engineer to save electrical or personal damage. Hope this helps
There is a bolt underneath the power steering pump that secures it from moving. It is on the opposite side of the pulley. (There are two bolts in that position, the lower one is the one you want.)
Loosen that and your pump should pivot freely.
Will a powerglide trans fit in a 1995 caprice with a 4.3?
The first problem is that the driveshaft will almost definitely not be the right length. You must have at least 3/4 of the yoke slid on to the output shaft of the transmission. If you don't, you will have severe vibration that will not only ruin the u-joint, but will also cause damage to the tail housing, the yoke bushing, and possibly the output shaft.
The second problem is that the transmission will likely not match up to the crossmember properly. You can overcome this by welding 1/4' steel extension plate to the crossmember to reach the transmission mount location on the transmission as long as it is only a few inches off. If it is more than two or three inches off, you will need to either move your crossmember (which will involve frame channeling or boxing, or you will have to have a custom crossmember built.
Third, and this is the biggest problem, is the kickdown linkage. A powerglide's kickdown mechanism is rod driven, not cable operated. You will need to custom build a rod to match up to the throttle body, not to mention figure out a way to connect the rod to the TBI.
Fourth, you will have no speedometer, no cruise, and a host of other potential problems because the VSS (Vehicle Speed Sensor) will not be present any longer.
The short answer is, yes, you can make anything work, but it will not be a direct swap.
The biggest question is why in the world anyone would do this. The only thing a powerglide is good for anymore is drag racing. But based on the fact that you asked whether it will fit behind a weaser 260 makes me wonder if you are doing it for that reason.
If you are trying to get away from using the 4L60E overdrive, a much better solution will be a 700R4 from an '88 or later 2WD truck. It is a much closer swap and will only require slight changes particularly with the VSS configuration. Everything else is a direct swap.
As far as gear ratios go, the 700R4 has a much better 1st gear ratio than a powerslide. (3.08:1 vs. 2.76:1).
If you are still bent on not using an overdrive, a TH350 would be a good alternative. They're cheap, powerful, and much easier to put in. BTW, you'll need to find one with a 9" tailshaft out of a 69-86 2WD truck or a 69-76 B-Body car. The kickdown is cable operated and I believe you can get adapters to compensate for the VSS problem.
Sounds to me like a lot more work than it's worth. Used 4L60E transmissions can be had for a few hundred bucks at the salvage yard. Probably less than you will spend or modifications to make something else work and certainly less time.
that's an A-body so it should interchange with a chevelle, GTO or tempest, or a buick regal of 67.
Fuse box for Olds Cutlas Supreme 1992?
Yes, it's located under your glove box. 1st open glove box and then pull out
molded box sleeve. No tools require for this action...
Where is the starter relay on a olsmobile cutlass sierra?
Actually, there is a separate relay as well as the solenoid. This relay is in a fuse panel, either under the hood, or maybe even in the kick panel fuse panel.
If you can get to the starter, try this:
Turn the key to "on". With the car in PARK (double check this, it's important)
look into the starter area. You'll see a big cable and a small cable both coming to the starter. Use a screwdriver to short these two together, keeping your hands, arms and hair AWAY from the belts!
If the car turns over, starts acts like it's going to run, but quits as soon as you remove the screwdriver, you may have a bad relay. This relay not only allows the starting system to START the car, it also allows the ignition system to function.
That's why it starts and tries to run, the power is back feeding through the system and giving power to the ignition coil when you short the starter. As soon as you pull the screwdriver away, the ignition loses power, and the engine coasts to a stop.
I've seen the relays priced anywhere from 25 to 50 bucks, depending on where you get it.
How to install a new starter in a Chevy 1975 with a 305 engine?
I just installed a strter in my 1975 Ford F-100, 400 V8. I am a novice mechanic and I was able to do the job with little trouble. Just remove the wire and remove the mounting bolts(on mine there were only 2 and they were obvious).
The starter slides out and the install is just as simple. My only issue was clearance on the back bolt. I just had to use very short strokes on the ratchet.
Good Luck.
but a chevy and ford not the same ford bolts to the bell housing. chevy bolts to the block. chevy has wires to the starter. ford goes to the fender well.
How do you replace the fuel line on an 87 crown Victoria LTD?
The fuel lines on your 1987 Ford Crown Victoria are held in place with a swivel nut on each end of the fuel line. Loosen the swivel nut to remove the fuel line. Reverse the process to install the new fuel line.
If you mean the key turns on and you have lights, the battery is ok. Yes you can hot wire it. First, make sure the kill switch is in the run position. You can also have a bad button and or wiring going to the starter relay. The relay is the switch that connects the battery to the starter. Check all cables from the battery. Check to see that the other side of the relay cable is tight, and is tight at the starter. The way to hot wire at the starter solenoid: just run/jump 12volts from from the battery side to the small nut/lug on side of solenoid. There are only three connections on it one big cable in (from battery), one big cable (to the starter). If this does not get the bike turning over, try taking a pair of pliers and using the handle ends, short the two big ends together. If it then turns over you have a bad starter soleinoid. Have key on, bike out of gear and choke on; bike should start. Hope this helps. Ben Parker,San Jose, Ca
