2007 gt g6 all instruments on panel is flashing
A mechanic's scan tool would lbe necessary to check all the modules. The problelm could be either in the wiring or the control modules. There is also the chance the dimmer switch could be turned off or defective. Or, the electrical part of the ignition switch could be problematic. Because of the possibilities, use of the scan tool would seem the route to go.
Do the engine have to be warm to check for coolant leak with a radiator pressure tester?
To check for a coolant leak with a radiator pressure tester, the engine does not have to be warm. In fact, it's safer to perform the test when the engine is cool to avoid the risk of burns.
Here are the general steps to perform a coolant pressure test:
Make sure the engine and the system is cool since hot coolant can burn, and that the cooling system has no pressure.
If the coolant level is low, add water or coolant to raise it.
Remove the radiator cap once the system is cool and depressurized.
Connect the pressure tester to the coolant reservoir or the radiator.
Pump the pressure tester to apply pressure to the cooling system without going over the system's psi number on the radiator cap, which the pressure tester's gauge measures.
If the pressure gauge drops quickly, there is a leak. The slower the gauge drops, the smaller the leak.
As for your Buick, it's possible that the intake manifold gasket is leaking coolant. This is a common problem in many GM vehicles, including Buicks34. The coolant can leak externally, or in some cases, it may leak internally, causing coolant to mix with the engine oil. Operating the engine with a coolant/oil mix can result in internal engine damage. If you suspect this is the case, it's recommended to get it checked and repaired by a professional mechanic.
How hard is it to change the serpentine belt in 2006 rendezvous
If the belt has fallen off there must be a problem. The don't just fall off of the car without assistance. With the belt off, check all of your pulleys to make sure they are turning properly. Then, get the manual for your vehicle and it will show you how to do this job :() Every car is different but all cars are the same generally and this is usually just a matter of putting the correct wrench into the tensioner to remove/apply tension and route the belt around everything in the proper direction.
There is usually a sticker in the engine compartment/hood area that shows the diagram of how the belt is routed.
My 2011 ram 3.6 liter v6 engine has 3 ignition coils w/spark pugs on driver side and just 3 spark plugs on passenger side. What is the cylinder order?
Dodge use a system called a "Lost Spark Ignition". Basically each coil fires two spark plugs on two different cylinders at the same time every time. One firing for the ignition stroke and the during the exhaust stroke on the other cylinder. Simply, a spark fired every other stroke on every cylinder. That means it only needs 3 coil packs on a V6 engine.
Your firing Order is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. Cylinder numbers are set as Odds and Evens. Stand with the belts and pulleys nearest to you. The cylinders on the Left side are the Odd numbers and the cylinders on the Right side are the Even Numbers. The cylinder on the LEFT side nearest to you is number 1. The middle one is number 3 and the one furthest away is number 5. The cylinder on the RIGHT side nearest to you is number 2. The middle one is number 4 and the one furthest away is number 6.
How do you change the light bulb in a Mettler P1210
If you find screws or a latching mechanism, use the appropriate tool to open the compartment. It might be a good idea to wear gloves during this process to avoid any injury from broken glass and make sure the replacement bulb is the correct type for your scale.
Exhaust rockers breaking on h100 2.6
More information please. What do you mean by "Breaking"? Has the engine been modified, things like different Cam, different valve springs? Is it just one or two rockers breaking or are they all being damaged? These will all give clues as to what might be the problem.
