2005 Pontiac Sunfire Coupe - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Is your choke stuck on? The float in your carb could be stuck. Black smoke means too much gas being burnt. Make sure your air filter is clean. I saw a car that would not run because the air filter was plugged.

check the comnnection on bulb

As it is easy to ruin your engine if you mess this up, buy a shop manual which will tell all steps to do the job correctly.

check your negative ground cable first thing. make sure that it is clean on the battery and all the other places it attaches too, and there are several. disconnect the battery negative and clean it and then disconnect the positive too. when you reinstall them after at least 5 minutes make sure they are very tight. not to the point of breaking them but tight. check back see, turn the key to the On only then off and then ON ( not start) shut it off and then start it as normal. is your check engine light on?

Yup

There are no normal specifications I explain. R134A refrigerant act different He changes pressure (status) with humidity percentage level. One day the pressure is this and the next day it is different. The pressure chart will tell you that.(From GM technicians courses)Or GM Dealer Hope it helps.

don't know about this exact car, but most brake calipers use either a 3/8th inch allen (hex) head or a T-50 torx head bit. The Hex wrench is what I would get without seeing this. I have also used a ratchet extension on some cars.

I suggest you try one of those instant download manuals. My brother( a mechanic) buys when he can't fix some technical issue with the manual at www.reliable-store.com . A lot of mechanics actually do this. Website is very good for this. Must try it !!

try hold up the key while starting, shot in the dark. if it startes remove extra items off key ring

check fuel pressure, if low change fuel filter. cycle key 3 times on and off ,before going to start

Sometimes it looks crazy too. But first look for good grounds Battery, cluster gauge you will have to retrieve the faulty code with a scanner that can read the code. Hope it help

You have air in the system and that prevents the thermostat from opening. Once leak issue is fixed you have to add antifreeze and squeeze the rad hoses repeatedly until the air is forced out. Run the engine up and down from 2 or 3000 RPM quickly to force air out, shut it down and refill when cold until it starts throwing heat you will still have an air lock.

Does your slave cylinder use the brake master cylinder to help pump fluid into the slave cylinder. You have a bad seal in the slave cylinder.

Check inside the wheel arch to make sure nothing is coming in contact with the wheel as you are turning.

It's wired to run continuously and it doesn't run ??? Or it does run ??? If it's wired to run all the time an it doesn't , the temp sensor wouldn't have anything to do with it . Fan itself would be the problem . Videos on youtube showing how to test cooling fan .
