On your 1993 cutlass supreme why is the antilock light coming on and staying on?

It's indicating a problem with the ABS. You'll need a code reader to figure out what's wrong. BTW, brake code readers are usually different than engine code readers. As with most ABS systems the wire is broken at the point of the wheel when it goes into the body of the hub. With constant turning back and forth the wire finally breaks, causing the light to come on and losing any ABS function. The brakes still work fine but not the pulsating effect from the ABS. You might try to have someone string another wire but I would suspect that it will break again in the future. Good luck.

Why will your odometer not work in your 88 cutlass supreme with a digital gauges?

I have a 91 and the odometer quit. The rest of the guages followed after a while. If you hit the dash they would come on. I tought there was a loose connection. I never found one. I then replace the printed circuit behind the guages with one from a scrap yard. It fixed it. It's probably you printed circuit and after a while I am sure the rest of the guages will fail.

What size serpentine belt is used when you bypass the AC pulley in a 1992 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera 6 cylinder?

Answer

They sell a bypass pulley but this is difficult to change. (you have to pull the compressor to get to the three bolts) The original belt is a 1073k6. The 1073 mean 107.3 inches. The belt needed to just bypass the compressor is 34 inches shorter, but they do not sell a 733k6 belt. They do sell a 735k6. This will work fine if your tensioner is in good shape. But the bypass pulleys are cheap and keep the right set up. Good luck. On my 1992 Ciera, they even had a diagram as to how the belt is installed "with AC" and "no AC" and the picture eliminated the compressor for the no AC option. If the manufacture shows an option without a compressor, I wonder why all the part stores don't have that info.

My 1991 Oldsmobile cutlass red temp lite flashes and the check engine lite comes on it runs hot and rough then stalls replaced thermostat and two fan sensors?

Was the car actually running hot? Is there water in the oil? You could have a weak head gasket that starts to lek under driving conditions. Get it in the shop before you crack a head. If the car is running hot, does it over heat while driving or will it overheat at a stop? If it does it will driving, check your trans fluid. About half of nuisance overheating can be traced back to the trans fluid cooler in the radiator.

How do you remove a tire stuck to the brake drum?

How do you change a water pump on a 1998 Oldsmobile cutlass 3.1 liter engine?

This is what I did on my 96 cutlass, I can't see it being much different on a 98. Your water pump it the pulley along the serpentine belt that has a smooth outside, since it runs on the top half of the belt. Loosen the four bolts that are on the outside of the pulley while the tension of the belt is on. Once the bolts have been loosened, take a 3/8 ratchet and locate the tensioning belt. There will be a square hole for the ratchet end to go into. In the loosen direction let out the tension and remove the belt from the water pump pulley. Remove the 4 bolts put to the side until install. There will be 5 or 6 bolt along side of the outside housing of the pump, remove those, you might have to tap on the side of it with a rubber hammer. You will loose fluid so have spill pan nearby. GM has changed the look of the water pump fins so don't be alarmed when the new one looks different than the new one. Clean off old gasket material, note that the gasket and the pump can only go on one way take care when orienting the new gasket. Install in reverse, put the belt back on and tighten the outside bolts after belt tension is on. Once you have started the car, remove the rad cap and add fluid. There should be a petcock on one of the hoses close by to remove air trapped in the system, let fluid run out. I hope this helps out a bit.

Where is the water pump located on a 1999 Oldsmobile Cutlass?

It depends on what engine you have. They are all on the front of the engine some are under the timing cover. Get a manual on your car from the parts store.
