Oldsmobile Cutlass

I just changed the starter on my cutlass cierra 92, and I took it just one step at a time. I disconnected the battery, then I jacked up the car and put the front on jackstands. Then under the motor just behind the radiator, you will find your starter. There is a dust cover that is held by one nut. you must remove this. It has two bolts (i used 15mm socket) and if they haven't been moved in the last 13 years get ready to use wd40 to remove them. The starter should drop as you remove them and it fits out of the space between the frame and the rad pipes. Look carefully at the wires. Only one goes on the small connecter. All the others go on the large connecter. Put the new starter back in the reverse order, and it should work.

I have an 89 cutlass supreme 3.1 and it should be the same. Remove the belt from the alternator. Next, There are two bolts on top and one under it. The two bolts on top are both size 10 wrench or socket and the one on the bottom is 13. One of the bolts on top is located on the right hand side of the alternator if facing it from the passenger side fender. The other one on top is connected to a metal arm just to the right of the wire that plugs in at the top and to the left of the other bolt. Unplug the wire. The fun begins here. The easiest way I found to get the bottom bolt out was using a short ranchet with a swivel head, a short size 13 socket and lots of patience, because I was only able to get very small turns on it. There is probably an easier way but I was unable to find it. Once the bolt on the bottom is loose and you can pull it out, I had to move the metal arm out of the way, that you loosened earlier, to get the bolt out completely out. a little, have fun.

You can take the whole aluminum "plate" off rather than taking off the third, buried alternator mounting bolt. After you loosen and remove the belt take off the three nuts below the alternator that mount the mounting plate to the engine block. It will be easy to do and easier than chasing that buried bolt.

there were 569 - 1969 Holiday S Coupes made.

With the radio off, press the set button. Scan button sets the hours, Seek button sets the minutes.

You have to loosen the power steering pump bolts and push down on the pump and the belt will loosen to take it off, to put it back on you route the belt over the pulleys and pull up on the steering pump and when tight tighten the pump bolts and your done.

They are about the same. The Olds has a 307 cid with 170 HP and 250 ft-lbs of torque and is usually a couple of hundred lbs. heavier than the Chevy. It also sports a HD rear end developed for the Buick Grand National. The Chevy has a 302 cid with 180 HP and 240 ft-lbs of torque.

The 4-4-2 in stock form should be a tenth faster in the quarter mile, and the Monte Carlo should have a 5 MPH higher top speed. In the real world, the driver, maintenance, and number of go-fast parts make a much bigger difference than the brand.

Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme

if your latch just broke, use a vice grip. if the cable itself has snapped, it gets tricker. my 2nd cutlass's cable snapped. i had to lift and jerk the hood manually until it came loose.

Gravity affects inertia. The lower the gravity, the more inertia.

Yes, but the signal lights are the wrong shape.

yes

No

You have to get the car high off the groung and there a 2 straps holding the tank up remove all hoses attached then remove the 4 screws holding the tank up. When start to drop the tank double check to make sure all hoses are dissconnected some are held on with the hose clamp and some are held on with GM's Quick Disconnect clips. Then remove from under car.

I found it in my repair manual. It is about 26 to 32 psi.

Yes what do I do

The 1985 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera has fairly unique "3/16" side lock" wiper arm attachments. See Sources and Related Links below for installation videos. Also, purchase the replacement blades first and there will be additional instructions/illustrations on the replacement packages. Its very easy.

I just replaced the crankshaft position locator (crank sensor) on my 89 Cutlass Supreme SL. Although I don't know if this will help since mine was a 2.8 L V6 (Eng Code W), but mine was located between the oil pan and transmission pan on the backside of the engine, just above the oil pan. In other words, its between the engine and the firewall on the bottom side.

You have to crawl under the car..... BE SURE TO USE JACK STANDS AND DONT TRUST JUST A JACK. It required a 5/16 closed end wrench. Use the closed end wrench to avoid stripping the bolt head. Its very tight in there. I dropped that wrench on my face at least 20 times. Once you get the one bolt unbolted, GENTLY pry it out with a very small screwdriver. Be super careful not to break it off while prying it out.

I was told if it breaks off, there is nothing you can do except knock it through and remove the oil pan to retrieve it. And you cant remove the oilpan without pulling the engine. Once I had it unbolted, it would turn, with a rag, but wouldn't pop out. It took quite a bit to get it out.

I think (so far) this has solved my problem with the car dieing and not starting for 2 hours. I also replaced the ignition module, which was also a pain but it was located on the front side of the engine.

check the fuses first, there should b a fuse for the instrument panel check the fuses first, there should b a fuse for the instrument panel

the linkages have either been removed/disconnected from inside the door panel (maybe parted out) or the frame has torqued (as in a crash) and they are jammed

If handle has no resistance the handle it's self is broken. When handle has a constant lite resistance from a spring it will be linkage from handle to latch disconnected or damaged (The linkage has small plastic clips holding it in place on each end and break fairly easily.)

Cylinder head to block torque = 80 ft-lbs.

Changing the alternator calls for 4 or 5 hours but you have to access it by removing your right front tire, removing the brake assy, the CV axle and then drop your lower control arm out of the way. It's a big job for a yard repair so good luck!
