SOURCE: no gas, no spark, 1991 chevy cavalier 2.2l 4cyl

This is an all too common problem with the Cavalier and other GM J-body cars. Usually it is because of the crankshaft position sensor or the harness going between it and the DIS (aka ignition module). Without the DIS seeing a signal from the crank sensor, it doesn't know when to trigger fuel and spark.

Sometimes this can also be caused by a faulty ignition switch. The switch will allow you to "crank" the car, but it doesn't make the proper connections for the ignition system, so the car never actually runs.

The previously indicated oil pressure switch could also be causing the problem, but if you hear your fuel pump run then it's OK.

Hopefully this helps. If not, your Cavalier is as messed up as mine and probably not worth fixing.

What are the 2 sensors above the oil filter and beside the coil packs on a 1991 chevy lumina euro 3.1 engine.the bottom one has 2 terminals and it comes loose and causes a no start.if you move it around...

The one that comes loose is the secondary crank sensor. The wire goes from this to the coil packs/ ignition module. The reason your cars dies. The other sensor is the knock sensor.

Coils do not have spark on 1997 Chevy lumina 3.1

Sounds like a bad crank sensor. It is needed to properly tell the firing order of vehicle. if the wrong signal it will not start. and to tell the coils to fire, If the coils have power to them and not sending it to plugs, Theres a possibility that the ignition module is bad! Check for cracks under or on bottom of coils. The ignition module is located under coil packs on most vehicles. Good-Day!

I have a 91 Chevy Lumina, just replaced the injectors and all the coils on saturday and ran fine but when driving it would have trouble it seemed shifting, starting today when you hit the gas the car dies...

Your ignition spark control module is going bad,your coils pack are located right underneth them. this is what tells your coils packs to produce spark to your spark plugs. they are easy to replace just make sure you mark you coil pack with some tape and make sure you put them back in the same order as they came off the spark control module. Easy to replace,just make sure you use the proper size torx or socket size on the screw heads...

1998 chevy lumina driving down the road and it just died. it will turn over but wont start. Something with the fuel system? Changed filter.

There are literally dozens of thing that could cause a car to die and not start again. If could be fuel related: fuel pump, fuel filter, fuses, bad gas, etc. It could be spark related: crankshaft sensor, ignition module, coil pack, etc. It could be mechanical: timing chain (or belt), broken internal engine parts, etc. My point is, it is impossible to determine what's wrong without further diagnostis. I recomend you take the car to a mechanic you can trust and have it looked at. Stay away from the big chain stores and find an independant garage.
