I have a 1996 Oldsmobile cutlass supreme and it was running alittle rough but was running. It sounded like it was missing alittle bit. It stalled on me at a red light but started back up and ran good. The next day it stalled and wouldn't start again. I changed the fuel filter thinking it was a fuel problem and it started but ran really rough and the exhaust shook when running. I changed the spark plugs and it started again but ran rough for about 30 seconds and backfired alittle when it stalled. Can it be the coil pack thats bad?

The first thing to check is the ignition timing then the spark plug gaps. There are specific settings/size for the above and must be correct for the car to run smoothly.

SOURCE: 1996 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme won't start

ok first shoot one little shot of gasoline in the throttle body or in the air cleaner to see if it will start up . If so it is a fuel problem .. Than I want you to try and turn on the Key and go to the rear of the car and crawl under the car and hit the gas tank as hard as you can with your fist.. this only sometimes works it might wake up the electric fuel pump and then try to see if it is picking up by starting the car.. also you might try it several times like hit it like your mad at it.. only use your hand not a hammer or anything damaging .. then try to start the car .. if it starts and runs you are soon going to need a new fuel pump... thanks jerry holler if you need more...

SOURCE: Engine will Turnover but it will not fire up

To check injector pulse, you need 2 people. One is to crank the engine. The other is to watch the voltmeter connecting to the plug delivering the electrical signal to an injector. If during a period of cranking, there is no voltage displayed that means there is no injector pulse. Here is an image of connector port going into the injector to open its valve as needed.d63fc52.jpg

What makes the fuel pump not kick on on a 92 Oldsmobile Cutlass

There is a red wire close to the battery in the front. It's not connected to anything. Apply positive voltage and that will run your pump for testing purposes.

91 olds cutlass supreme runs rough and wont stay idle.

If your vehicle is fuel injected I would say you have a blown fuel regulator. This would cause excess fuel into the cylinders (flooding) causing a miss and coughing and also blow fuel into the air breather. If will also cause the vehicle to run poorly and could cause the vehicle to stall. Also to much fuel on startup can flood the cylinders and cause the vehicle to no start.
