your problem could be that your muffler is damaged or ruined. i would see a car repair place like jiffy lube or maaco. ask for insurance too.

Try checking and making sure you are getting fuel to the fuel rail there should be a serator valve on the line on the engine. If you are not getting fuel to it make sure the fuel pump fuse and relay are in good working order. Check and see if you can hear the fuel pump running. If you are not getting fuel to the rails and can not hear the pump running the pump is possibly bad.

Yes all of the Saturns used a V Ribbed Serpentine belt to drive the engine accessories.

If the car is idling high I'd start by looking for a vacuum leak. I usually start by looking at the line from the brake booster that runs to the back of your intake. I have seen the metal connection degrade and/or work itself disconnected.

If you have not replaced the coolant temp sensor on this vehicle I would do so now. There were numerous reported issues with the originals in these cars and they have been reported to cause a whole heap of what some would see as unrelated issues. They usually run about 14 bucks and are fairly easy to replace.

The most common air pressure for your type of car is 32 PSI. And as far as why your engine light is on, it could be for several reasons. The best way to find out what is causing it to turn on is to stop by an auto parts store and having them run a diagnostic check on your car to get the codes that are causing the light to be on. Once you get the codes, you can google them, or if the automotive technician knows, see what they can do to help you then and there.

Possible bad bearing in the fan. When a fan is on it's way out, it's usually due to a bad bearing. The bearing is making the noise you're describing. It's very possible you need a new auxiliary fan.

I think the easiest way to fix this problem would be to hook up a toggle switch that way you can easily turn your fan on and off. Just make sure that you follow the directions on the switch as to how to wire the switch. You will also need to use the two wires that run to the fan. You will need a small role of wire too. Speaker wire will work fine as long as the wire is about 12 gauge or bigger. I hope this helps you out. The whole repair should not cost you more then 10 dollars. If you have any more questions please feel free to ask

There should be a rubber o-ring around the base of the section of the iacv (the portion that fits inside the manifold). Make sure this is seated properly. If it is not you may be allowing air to pass. This would increase idle speed. Also make sure to check that the valve itself is properly seated and tightened into place. If no this may also allow air to pass unrestricted into the engine. Good Luck

Ok. The way your system is set up,you have a fan switch located in the engine block,usually near the top.That fan swtich sends the voltage to the fan motor or to a fan relay then to the motor.You can jump the fan motor directly to make sure the motor itself is not burned out by unplugging the motor and running a jumper wire from your battery pos terminal to the terminals on the fan motor itself..If you have checked the motor and it does work,then the easiest thing to do is simply replace the fan switch.You should have a Coolant temp switch and a radiator fan switch and possibly and Radiator fan relay.I would try the radiator switch first,then replace the relay.The coolant temp sensor is for the computer and usually doesnt tie into the radiator fan switch.try that and repost.Good luck

Maybe anti theft system shutting the injectors off. This link explains http://vatspasslockpasskeysecurityhelp.yolasite.com/

Have the fuel pressure tested first. With the item that you replaced it may just be the fuel regulator or defective injectors but you need to have it tested to be sure to avoid purchasing parts unnecessarily.

not a fuse, it is a common mechanical problem on saturns, 91-96. you can buy a kit to fix it on ebay.
however you have to pull out the whole cluster, disassemble it and then reassemble and put it back in.
it will not be worth one more cent with an odometer than without, most folks just live with it.

It's a switch that slightly changes shift points. In performance , the trans shift at a slightly higher rpm and in normal......shifts a bit lower rpm and also better fuel economy.

BECAUSE YOU NEED A TRANSMISSION!!!!!! SYNCHRONNIZERS ARE GONE!!!!!!!
