SOURCE: remove and replace wiper blade assebly 89 chevy silverado

there is a keeper on the inside of the arm. its easier to get to if you remove the whole arm. lift the wiper arm and near the pivot point there is a little flat bar that sticks out along the arm itself. its about a quarter inch long. pull that out alittle and slide the arm off the peg. makes it easier for me. if you cannot get the wiper off still, destroy it. your replacing it anyway and the arm is pretty sturdy.

SOURCE: location of oil filter in 1997 oldsmobile delta 88 LS?

Well, in my 1989 Olds 88, the oil filter is just above the right swingarm for the wheel. It's an interesting reach from underneath, and the oil drips directly onto the frame of the car, but that's where the filter should be.

I believe they use the same 3800 (3.8L V6) engine up through 1997 or 1998...so you should be able to find it there. Hope that helps!

I have a 1989 delta 88 my drivers side wiper arm needs to be repositioned but the clip on the bottom of the arm is broken off how else could i remove said wiper arm
You can try to hook where the release used to attach with a seal pick, a dental mirror might also help you see the under side of the arm and guide you in hooking the right piece.

Aftr ice storm passenger wiper arm pops off spline. I push it on and it seems to be seated but when i turn wiper motor on it lifts up and doesn't move. The spline is moving with motor when on. Is it...
there is normally a clip that would hold the wiper on the spindle.
this could be broken, or as you say, the spline or the wiper could be stripped.

i have drilled into the spline like that with varying degrees of success.
some splines have a steel shaft in the middle that makes it difficult to drill straight.
also, do not drill more than 1/4 inch into the splines as you will seriously weaken it and it will probably fall off as you try to do up the bolt.

obviously, the best way is to replace the damaged part but i have drilled through and had the wipers work for years afterwards. i have also had them fall off again or snap the first time they are used.
it is worth trying for a short term repair, but should be done properly to ensure safe wipers

Where is windshield wiper motor for 1992 mercury grand marquis

  1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
  2. Remove the rear hood seal. Remove the wiper arm assemblies by raising the wiper blade off the windshield. Move the slide latch away from the pivot shaft and slowly lower the arm onto the latch. This unlocks the arm from the pivot shaft and holds the blade off the glass. Pull the arm from the pivot shaft.
  3. Remove the cowl vent screws and disconnect the washer hoses from the washer jets.
  4. Detach the electrical connectors from the wiper motor.
  5. Remove the wiper assembly attaching screws, lift the assembly out and disconnect the washer hose.
  6. Unsnap and remove the linkage cover.
  7. Remove the wiper module assembly retaining bolts and remove the module from the vehicle.
  8. Remove the linkage retaining clip from the motor operating arm by lifting the locking tab and pulling the clip away from the pin.
  9. Remove the motor retaining screws and remove the motor from the vehicle.
  10. The installation is the reverse of the removal.

Replacing side mirror
On the inside trim, you can remove screws that are by the door handle, arm rest, under door and side of door and then gently pull back on the panel as there will also be retaining clips attached and you don't want to break them. You'll need to lift the door panel upwards in order to get it off the window ledge. Then you'll need to manipulate the panel and disconnect the door handle linkage from the door handle and disconnect the wiring for your controls. Then you can access the bolts that secure the mirror onto the door
