92 olds 88 royale somedays it will cut off on you while im driving but it always starts back up you thought it was the fuel pump but its been doing this for over a month now?

Are you getting the security light in a lit position when this occurs? if so you may have a problem with the security system/passkey chip (small black chip in key) not sending its ohm value reading to your security system (shutting down fuel pump/and motor) and if after about three minutes it restarts correctly sometimes and or the security light comes on/off for no reason this may be your problem. Passkey system can be bypassed by reading ohm value of resistor in key (black chip) just read ohm value and got to a electronics store radio shack's electronics ,etc and make up a resistor of similar value as reading given from meter when ohm-ed out ,trace out wires from lock cylinder and solder in you new made up fake out passkey and bingo security system is now bypassed with out allot of hassle. Just MAKE CERTAIN YOU ARE CUTTING CORRECT WIRES FOR PASSKEY LEADS TO IGN CYLINDER! IF UNCERTAIN YOU CAN TRIGGER AIRBAG BY MISTAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! VERIFY CORRECT WIRING. GOOD LUCK IT FIXED MINE AND WAS WELL WORTH IT !!!

good luck!

Changed battery in 1999 Oldsmobile delta 88 and won't start?

So you changed your battery and it still wont start.

Few things to look at here... lets get started.

Side post battery, ensure the batterys ends are clean and tight. Peel back the first 1/2 inch of plastic on the cable and look for corosion. If its present....either cut 1/2 an inch off it and put on new terminal connectors, its a 3 dollar fix.

Corrosion will prevent the proper ammount of amperage draw to leave the battery and reach the starter. usually indicated by a single click, or clicking when the key is turned.

No clicking at all.. lets take a look at the ignition switch. remove it and take it to your local auto zone for testing. Its free, and takes about 10 minutes to remove and replace. The part is bad this is a 30 dollar fix. This is very common for this year model of car. This is my guess of your problem from past experience.

Last lets take your starter off. It also can be bench tested at Auto Zone for free. It will take you about 20 minutes to remove and 20 minutes to put back on.

Sorry but all of your diag tips require time to remove parts and replace, but your own labor is free vs. A shops labor rate.

I hope this helps you , good luck.
