Pontiac Firebird

Under the cover there should be two screws. On my '02 Firebird they were a star screw. Taking those two screws off let the panel come out.

firing order: 1-2-3-4-5-6 with clockwise distributor rotation on the 3.1 v6 ohv engine

Use a small ratchet with a 9mm socket and rotate clockwise. The terminal connections will come right off. Make sure to take the positive (red) connecton off first.

only a Buick, olds or Pontiac engine will bolt to a Pontiac tranny as Chevy blocks have a different bolt pattern.

'67 was the first year for the Firebird.

you need to get a bigger fuse

Unfortunately, no. You will need to remove the fuel tank to replace it. You can probably however "make" an access door. Simple locate on the trunk floor exactly where the pump would be under the trunk pan and carefully after insuring there are no fuel leaks and there is adequate clearance between the trunk pan and tank cut it out with a cutoff wheel or sawzall. You would then replace the pump by removing the lock ring on the tank,plugs and hoses and lifting it out. Then make yourself a door out of medium gauge steel and rivet or sheetmetal screw it back in place. I have done this on a couple camaros. This is why I say probably because they are both F body cars and should be the same.

Search thridgen.org for info and even a template w/specs on making an access door.

in the gas tank

I think Year 1, makes parts for that car, so they probably would.

The only thing that comes to mind is a defective fuel sending unit.

Buy a kit at Wal-Mart or auto parts comes with instructions Its really easy . Go to auto store and ask what the capacity of your vehicle is . Get all in one oil , freon (R134) o ring conditioner with an applicator . It will be about 20 to 25 dollars . Look under your hood for the LOW PRESSURE SIDE ! DO NOT USE THE HIGH ! The nozzle shouldn't fit the high for your safety . IThis will be one of the main lines coming off your ac compressor . Start your car with you AC on FULL blast ! Shake your freon , put the applicator on the nipple turn the can upside down and apply . I would get one with a gauge so you dont overfill !

You need to pick up a pulley puller tool ($25) from an auto parts store. Clamp it on the small flange then brace the puller so it doesn't turn and then tighten the large bolt and the pulley will be pried off.

Hey Gabriel==Follow the upper radiator hose and where it meets the engine it is in that housing.. Be sure to put it back with the spring toward the engine. Good luck, Joe

left hand side of motor on side of oil pan

the inside bulbs are the high beams.

Depends on which engine you have, but on either engine it should not take more than 4 hours for someone familar with the proceedure.

try replacing mass air sensor

I already answered this under spark plugs. If you cannot find it let me know david vol-dolfan@msn.com

put a cone air filter

Not seeing which switches you are talking about.....whether factory or something installed aftermarket....I'd have to say that one is for the rear window defrost and the other is for an option for the stereo. Bass boost or something to that effect.

You need two special tools to do this repair...A steering wheel puller and a lock plate depresser.

First, if your car has a padded 3-spoke type steering wheel, locate the screws (one at each spoke) on the back side of each spoke and remove them. Carefully pull the trim pad off and then find the wire that is plugged into the center of the column from the trim pad. Push in and twist the wire free of the column and be careful as a small plastic piece and a little spring will come out too.

Make sure the steering wheel is in the position of the car being driven straight ahead and then use the steering wheel puller to remove the wheel. Do not turn the wheel in either direction while removing it.

Next remove the round black plastic cover that has a couple of screws holding it in place.

Next attach the lock plate depresser and push the column lock plate down about 1/4 of an incch and then remove the slotted ring that is around the column that was holding the lock plate in place.

Next release the lock plate and remove it. You will see a black Phillips head OR torx head screw at about the 2 o clock position in the column which will appear to be screwed into the ignition lock. Remove that screw and the ignition lock cylinder will slide right out.
