Lack of power when accelerating the vehicle down the road.Engine takes a long time to start (extended cranking time).When the fuel pump sends barely enough fuel to start and keep the engine running, you'll see one or more of the following problems: It'll send just enough fuel to start the engine but the engine will run with serious drivability issues.It will stop sending fuel to the fuel injectors and the engine won't start.The fuel pump will usually fail in one of two ways: Fuel Pump Wiring Diagram (1998-1999 3.1L V6 Chevrolet Lumina, Monte Carlo).Fuel Pump Wiring Diagram (1997 3.1L V6 Chevrolet Lumina, Monte Carlo).Fuel Pump Wiring Diagram (1996 3.1L V6 Chevrolet Lumina, Monte Carlo).Fuel Pump Wiring Diagram (1995 3.1L V6 Chevrolet Lumina, Monte Carlo).TEST 2: Using Starting Fluid To Diagnose A No-Start Condition.ĪPPLIES TO: This tutorial applies to the following vehicles:.TEST 1: Checking Fuel Pressure With A Fuel Pressure Gauge.Where To Buy A Fuel Pressure Test Gauge.Water is not leaking out and fans are working. As I said before it has a new thermostat and water pump and now a new radiator cap. During these stops the heat gauge didn't say it was hot but my son-in-law still thinks something is shutting it down when it is just a little hot. I told him to suggest getting codes read when he talked to him again. I just called over there and the grandson said his dad was going to try to start it. Into a parking lot, took me home and the other two AfterĪ rest and adding a little gas it started up and shutĭown less then 1/2 mi. The two of them andĪ man going by pushed it into a gas station. We didn't get aġ/2 mile when it shut down. I was going to take a grandson and the great-grandson to my son-in-law's house. It would not startĪgain so we walked home. It began cutting out and missing and then stopped. When we got within under a mile from home the car shut down. We were there about an hour and started home (about 2 to 3 miles away). We went to church with no problems and afterwards went to my son's and daughter-in-law's house. I didn't want to get stuck and have to walk in the dark. Going home I was more concerned because it was dark and my 10 yr. Thought we had it because it went a few days According to my son-in-law, He tried the new radiator cap and we Why would they work upon initial startup and quit when the car got hot? What should I check here? I turned it off, restarted it to see if the fans would turn back on, they didn't. I waited about 10 minutes, they never came back on and the car overheated. After about 5 minutes, they shut off and didn't turn back on again. When I initially started it, the radiator fans were on.
#97 CHEVY LUMINA MANUAL#
Anything I can check or replace myself that doesn't require more than a Chilton manual and basic tools?ĮDIT: just ran the car until it overheated. Where should I start here to find the problem? My auto knowledge is pitiful but I can't afford a mechanic. It wasn't leaking anywhere, just boiling in the tank like a pressure cooker. I pulled off and heard a strange sound, once again popped the hood and found the antifreeze in the reserve tank boiling. The car cooled and I got back on the highway to continue, got caught in traffic and had to slow down, the car overheated again. I did notice earlier that the reserve was too full.(I just bought this car, first highway trip) Now, the excess coolant is out, it is at the right levels. I pulled over and noticed antifreeze gushing from under the hood so I popped the trunk. When driving on the highway, the temperature is normal but when I exit and slow down, the car overheats.
