Where is the starter enable relay located on a 1998 Oldsmobile 88 LS?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It's probably part of the starter itself. Look to see where the BIG positive wire from the battery goes. I'll bet it goes to a little cylinder that is part of the starter. This little cylinder is the relay and starter solenoid that engages the starter gear into the flexplate as it closes the relay to the starter to turn the engine over. TommyTrouble

What are typical problems on a 1998 Delta 88?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

my 1994-Brakes, egr valve, throttle position sensor, cruise control "drops out" sometimes, alternator, battery, exhaust (once the stock stainless system goes, you will have a hard time keeping an exhaust system on the car), fuel pump, serpentine belt, power locks, power antenna, peeling paint, brake lines, master cylinder, front struts and strut bearings, power steering fluid cooler. Oil pan rusted out. Oil spray the underbody to keep the frame and floor strong. Change engine oil, tranny and rad fluid regularly (my car has not had any engine, tranny or cooling system problems so far). Very fast and strong running, with good fuel mileage, for a heavy full size car.

How do you install a fan system in a 1994 olds eighty- eight?

Asked by Wiki User

If you are referring to the blower motor, it is located centrally behind the motor on the firewall. There should be 6 bolts holding it in place and there is one wire connection to unclip. You may have to remove the bar that is located over the engine before you can pull out the blower motor. If you are putting in a used blower motor, make sure you have the matching gasket as they can vary. Also, make sure that the fan blades are positioned in the same direction as the original blower's to prevent reverse airflow.

Very carefully! - with mechanics tools, and you better remember how to put it back together again or take pictures or draw pictures or paint the bolts different colors and their bolt holes the same color. Your local library may have a service manual with more detailed help.

Asked by Wiki User

Typically there is a petcock valve on the lower left side of the radiator, unscrew the petcock to drain the radiator. On radiators without a petcock, you would remove the lower hose to drain the system. (Quite messy!)

Do the timing marks line up with each other or on the block on an Oldsmobile Eighty-Eight 3.8L?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You're talking about the the marks on the timing gears Right? Because the timing gears have little marks on them. The top gear should have the mark at the 6 o'clock point(down on the bottom), and the smaller lower gear at the 12 o'clock position(up to the top). And these two marks should be lined up with each other.
