    Lumina "Anti-Lock" light

    Ok, so I was driving around in the snow all day yesterday and no lights came on. During the night the car iced up and I went to drive it. I pulled out of a spot and I was in a couple inches of snow, not much. I hit about 30 mph and my "Anti-Lock" or ABS light came on. Now I was wondering would...

    Check engine light

    My bro's 97 Maxima's check engine light has been coming on. And the codes it gave were the knock sensor, o2 sensor and something like EVAP (evaporative emission system) purge/vent solenoid circuit condition. The mechanic said that maybe my gas cap is faulty and is causing the knock and Evap to...

    Rebuilt/Salvage title

    Ok so I just recently switched insurance carriers because my last one shafted me on premiums. But anyway, I get a call from my new carrier today and they tell me that there is a problem with the title for my brothers car. She said that it was a salvage title and could not be on the road. So I...

    Paypal question?

    How safe is paypal? I may be purchasing something from someone on craigslist which is notorious for scammers I hear. He suggested paying through paypal, but if he should not send the goods am I safe? Does paypal re-imburse me the money that I sent him?

    Quad-driver module?

    So I pulled up the error code on my 92' Cutlass. I got error code 26 which is the Quad-Driver No. 1 error. The book says that the Quad-Driver module is in the PCM (Powertrain control module). Is the PCM the same as the ECM? I want to order a re- manufactured one off of ebay and its advertised as...

    Rebuilt CPU?

    I am going to check out 92' GT this weekend. I called up and the woman didn't know much about it because she is selling it for her son thats away at college. She had a list of things that he had gotten replaced on it. And one of the things was a rebuilt cpu. I just wanted to know what would...

    Symptoms of bad battery or alternator?

    So lately when I leave my car over night it needs a jump in the morning. I go to start it and it will crank but eventually all the lights dim on the dash and there is no response from the engine. I jump fixes it right up and once its on it stays on which leads me to believe it may be the...

    Anyone use Lucas products?

    I bought a quart of the Lucas heavy duty oil stabilizer for my 92 Cutlass. It has 150k on it so I figured a product like this couldn't hurt. It supposedly seals worn cylinders, prevents oil consumption, eliminates dry starts (which I get a lot) and reduces heat. The guys at the auto store were...

    tailpipe question

    Will 96-98 GT tailpipes fit on a 94-95 GT? One of the tailpipes rusted out and I had to take it off. I was going to run to the junk yard to see if I can pick up a cheap pair. I know I had seen a 98 GT at one of the junk yards but I wasn't sure if the tailpipes fit. Right now there is also a...

    Bouncing speedometer needle?

    Lately the speedometer needle has not been steady. It has been wiggling around the speed the car is at and the when you hit a bump the needle will hit 0 mph and bounce back to where it was at. Would this be a problem with a fuse or sensor? Or just some simple little part that needs to be replaced?

    95 GT fuses?

    Ok so my gf was cleaning out her 95 GT and she dropped a penny in the cigarette lighter and there a big spark. The lighter does not work now and you cannot adjust the drivers seat. She told me that she read on some other tech boards that the #30 fuse may have blown. Apparently they said that the...

    My car is a mystery...

    Ok so I dd a 92 oldsmobile cutlass. Very reliable except for the fact that it will refuse to start at random times. Now if I zap that battery with another car it will start again immediatly. When I try to start it and it doesn't start there is no sort of cranking at all. I just hear a buzz. Once...
