Pontiac Le Mans

You can use either WD40 or some other lubricant to make it easier to move or gently tap on the hinges with a hammer to loosen them.

It's on the driver side, under the dash. It's about 4"x5" or so. If you aren't familiar with the older cars, they take the glass type fuses. They aren't the plastic blade type like the 80 and up cars.

you have to drop the entire pan since there is no plug and you might as well change the filter and gasket while you have it off

It'sd in the front. Activate it and listen for where the noise comes from. Also, consider asking this question again, but use Toyota Corolla instead of Pontiac Lemans.

A 225/70/15 will fit a 66 LeMans....but I think the only diameter wheel available for the LeMans back then was originally 14". I could be wrong about this.

It is one big peice that must be removed.

If you open the trunk, look on the inside of the lid behind the license plate, and you will find a few nuts that once removed, will allow you to remove the entire rear facia panel that the license plate bolts to and which houses the "PONTIAC" lights.

firing order 3.8 litre Pontiac

blind folded

Somewhere in the area of 150-170 HP.

there is no 2.0l Pontiac lemans.it must be a swap from sunrunner.

Presuming you have the Pontiac V8 engine, it's on the front driver's side of engine, mounted low on side of timing cover, below water pump. Power steering pump is above it, so may be hard to see. Look for fuel lines from tank exiting frame at engine crossmember on driver's side, or follow fuel line from carburetor back to the pump. Best removed from under car.

That varies greatly depending on the year of production, carb, etc. The highest factory rated 400s were the 1969-1970 Ram Air IV at 370HP@5500rpm. Later smog versions produced after 1974 were as low as 170HP with the two barrell carb. Google "wallace racing" their web site it has a great engine search feature, will tell you specs of your exact model.

firing order would be 18436572 with number 1 cylinder near the radiator on the driver side{1357}driver side......{2468}passenger side......goodluck!

The '68 GTO will never be a year model in high demand. (I own one) As compared to a '67 or '69 at least. If you are doing a full restoration, I feel you would retain more value keeping it a Le Mans than cloning. Keep a Pontiac block, stroke your original or bump a 400 to 468 if power is your thing, just no chebbies... Understand this is one man's opinion... if resale is not a concern and you want to make it suite you then the sky is the limit, enjoy!

To some degree, I agree with this answer. The '68 was not the most popular. However, the GTO, and even the clones, are worth more than the LeMans. If you are just looking for value in the end, go with the GTO conversion. Take a look around and you'll see that even the clones are going for ridiculous amounts. Personally, I like this body style with the hide away headlight option. I've never been one to worry about what would be worth more. Not unless I had something EXTREMELY rare. I've always built cars to my taste and with the intent of driving and enjoying them. So in the end it depends on what you are wanting to do with the car. Drive and enjoy.....or sell it for the highest dollar. Either way the GTO clone will bring more but keep in mind it will cost more to find the parts and convert it.

the round button on the Dash above the radio. It is about an inch in diameter.

They are hard to locate on-line as I found out, but I found one at Advance Auto Parts. It is Haynes #38027 entitled "General Motors Chevrolet Malibu 2004 thru 2007." It is a Hynes Repair Manual based on a complete teardown and rebuild. Published in 2007, printed in USA, authors Rob Mattox John H. Hayes. The pages are numbered by section so without counting them it is better to say the book is about 8 1/2 by 11 inches and 9/16 inch thick.

On the engine end of the upper radiator hose is the location.

a 455 you need to buy a engine mount kit from national parts depot or just make it easy and weld them in place. I put in a 455 into a 1970 lemans, the car never came with a 455 but i had no problems mounting it in. Attach the motors mounts to the frame mounts put in the engine check and make sure it is level attach it to the trans then weld away yoy will love the 455 its a beast.

There should be a fusible link on the car. There will be two small wires that mount to the starter solenoid. The last few inches of these should be fusible link. A lot of times these are missing. When they do their job and "melt" a lot of guys just replace them with regular wire. Most any auto parts store carry fusible link. You can buy it in pre-cut pieces or in a roll just like any other wire. Hope that helps.

You may be referring to something called "torque roll." If a RWD car (or truck) uses a live axle in the rear, then all the torque coming out the back of the transmission creates an equal (and opposite in direction) torque against the frame, specifically applied at the motor mounts. Things can be done with the suspension to disguise it, but the only way to completely eliminate torque roll would be to physically separate the rear differential housing from the suspension.

check for broken or slipped timing belt...also fuel filter and fuel pump

Also check the orange wire connected to the positive battery terminal. If it doesn't have a good connection the engine will turn over but will not start. Had the same problem with my '90 lemans.

autozone.com current vehicle upper left choose car repair info vehicle repair guides hope u find it from there

don't know if they are same but an 88 lemans torque to 18 then two turns of 60 degrees then 30 degrees. if this isn't right check your local library they usually have great manual that you can copy pages out of.

Absolutely not!! The cylinder walls won't take that much over bore before you're in to the water jackets.

The starter is close to the firewall in the back of the engine. So if you have the hood open and you are facing the engine, it is straight ahed in the middle and about half way down in the back of the engine. It should be a bosch unit.
