I have a '99 gmc Safari van. I had to replace a leaking badly radiator. After replacing it I found the battery drained. So I charged it completely and it tests ok. However it will turn over fine but it just won't start. Seems weird because I drove it fine down to the maintenance shed.

Sometimes when battery voltage is lost, some modules may have to be reprogrammed or relearn? Do you have a security system?
You could always check the basics, have a helper crank it while you check for spark at the plugs. Also, check proper fuel pressure and fuel injector pulse. Let us know what you find?

Check your spark plugs. That could be one of the reasons. Or are you sure you purchased the proper Fuel pump?

double check the pump the impeller inside can be rotted away and it will still pump some but not enough to cool it at 65 mph , you can remove the pump and take off the plate on the back and look at it easily? second get a tech to loan you his infared thermometer and double check the temp it can pinpoint the problem ? good luck [email protected]

On my 95 safari van there is an oil leak on the line connection to the rad. The line come from the base of the oil filter.Is this an extra cooling system for the oil when the van is used for towing?

The two oil lines connected at the radiator normally are for transmission oil cooling either way there will be two lines one in one out.. If you are sure it's engine oil you can remove the line cap both connecting fittings.BE absolutely sure They are not to the transmission. Oil from the transmission is pink or smells bad when dirty.

Key stuck in ignition of my 94 gmc safari, had to unhook the battery to turn the van off. Do I have to replace my ignition, or is there anything else I can try first?

Be sure to check your charging system, it usually self destructs when battery is disconnected. what happens is the voltage regulator goes full out, and fries diodes...

Heater only blows cold air. I have replaced the thermostate and blown clean the heater core. also replaced a control switch ($280). Sick of getting ripped off.

When the van is warmed completely check the top radiator hose by squeezing it together. If you can squeeze it without any resistance replace the radiator cap. The coolant is not circulating properly and can keep the heater from working. If you cannot squeeze the hose together than you may have a bad water pump. The water pump has fins inside of its' case. Those fins may be rusted completely off to where the water cannot circulate. You can check the circulation by feeling the top and bottom hose coming off of the water pump to the radiator. Both those hoses should be the same temp. If not I would consider changing the water pump.

How do I drain the engine coolant from a 1998 GMC Safari?

I just remove the lower radiator hose for the fastest drain, but there is a drain valve on the back of the side tank of the radiator (drivers side) that u can only access from under the van

Had to have fuel pump replaced on my 2000 Safari Van

You need to find the psi ratings for the pump you have and see if it matches the pressure specs for a 2000 GMC Safari pump.The parts store you purchased it from( or any parts store) should be able to look up that info on his merchandise

Battery drains in 1994 safari van

sorry to tell you an open circuit will not drain your battery as no voltage flows through it. usually this kind of problem would be more related to corrosion not letting it charge correctly or a bad alternator that is not putting out enough voltage to charge it as you drive.

Battery drains in 1994 safari van

It is not the fusible link, if that was the problem it would not start at all. There is an open circut some where that is draining the power. Start disconnecting non esential devices, radios, TVs that sort of thing until you trace it down. And if you have an alarm on it check that first.

1994 GMC Safari Oil leaked out for no reason. Put more oil in...look under van and oil is leaking like a water fall. Turn Van off oil leak calms to a trickle. Other than the oil water fall the van runs...

Check the oil filter adaptor bracket. My 1993 Safari had the same problem, and the adaptor bracket and seal were bad. Replacement fixed the leak.
