check your fuel filter your owner`s manuel help you locate it or go to lcal part`s store they should be able to help you

I would say try changing the spark plugs and spark plug wires if gas is old put in at least 5 gallons of fresh gas and change the fuel filter.

do the engine control system test for the poss stored trouble code, go to the link for that procedure.

Hi there,

Not difficult at all,

Two bolts for the starter
Two nuts for the starter wires
Two screws for the solenoid

The actual process is a bit more complicated, but only marginally. I was trying to give you the complexity level you requested

Best regards
Mike

sounds like a power wire or a ground wire is loose or not making contact. also check for fusable link in power line that might have blown.

Phone an auto wreckers in your area, you may find what your looking for there.

it's your instrument cluster (digital speedometer). Changed mine today with a used one at the junk yard. A $50 fix, but it's worth it. The only way I knew was to buy the service manual for the car.

Could be a bunch of things most likely some sort of emissions sensor. If you are close to an "Autozone" they can check the codes for you for free and this should tell you what is setting off the sensor

battery terminal yanking test ,if it move no good

The master brake has gone totally bad

I think the alternator gave out. The car can't run off the battery no matter how much you boost it. Take th alternator to a parts place and get it tested this is usaully free of charge. it the problem is not the alternator then find the voltage regulator and replace it, they are not expensive. hope this helps

dealer try lubing it with wd40

Its probably how your bleeding your brakes, but first make sure the bleeding nipples are facing upward. You should bleed diagonaly, front pass wheel then rear driver wheel. Then front driver wheel and rear pass wheel. The abs light has its own computer your have to get it scanned to clear the codes and turn off the light

Check wheel mount flange for runout...it may have gotten bent as well.

It should be on the air cleaner hose or Housing itself..

Unless your dead broke, get the dealer or trusted mechanic to do the job. The perils of dealing with loaded springs, etc. just isn't worth the personal risk IMHO. Not to mention that the parts will be hard enough to get and the mechanic will order all the little parts, gaskets, etc. etc. that are needed without having to make multiple trips back to NAPA, if you know what I mean. ;-)

check the fusable link at the starter solenoid by pulling on each on, if it fill rubbery and streches then it is bad. Check for voltage at starter to ground also. If you have power to your starter then I would suspect a fusable link. also next circuit to test woud be from switch to smal terminal on solenoid. You should get power when key is in start position. Hope this helps you

if you have an Autozone near you they will put a tester on it for free or a place or parts store that sells testers and that way you can find out why the check engine light is on because it could be several things that can cause this light to be on

The crankshaft Sensor is located at the lower right hand side of engine ahead of lower pulley
diagram E

The camshaft Sensor is located at the lower right hand side of engine above lower pulley diagram F

I have uploaded a picture of the location HERE

Yes it is most likely one or both sensors

Not that difficult to remove

I would have the car checked for codes first to make sure

You can get a scan tool at your local auto store usually they will loan you one .

Or you can read the codes yourself

Here is a great site for just that HOW TO READ CODES

I hope this helped and thank you

You should be able to register at www.autozone.com and get the info for free. Previously you didn't have to register but now you do. Good luck! If it's not online you should be able to stop into an AutoZone to print out a copy.
