#1038 of 1692 Re: Is it the transmission in my 94 Geo Metro? [pipeman] by annablume Nov 30, 2006 (5:38 pm)
Replying to: pipeman (Nov 30, 2006 7:56 am) Thanks for your post, pipeman -   The lurching happens mostly when the engine is cold, but sometimes it will do it when it's hot. For example, if we come to a full stop at a stop sign, then accelerate, it will lurch or jump, then it's okay.   We'll have the connection and spring checked as you suggested. What you've described sounds very probable, given the Geo's performance.   Thanks again... Replies to this message: pipeman (Dec 01, 2006 2:44 am)

Replying to: annablume (Nov 30, 2006 5:38 pm) hello again. Please check those recomendation, but do not try to adjust the 'set srew' on the "carburator" - throutle body. If the cam rest on the set srew, next step will be - throtle body positioning sensor mounted on thre second side . Remove the 2 srew, gently and check for operation. Let me knoiw. After that I will let you know. Mark

Thanks to all! I had a tune-up done and my car seems to be starting with no problem now. Even in the rain. Also, I am driving below half a tank of gas because of the gas leak. Can't do the gas tank repair yet. Keep your fingers crossed. Deborah

Replying to: shaggyman1 (Mar 16, 2001 12:35 pm) I just did a valve job on a 90 metro, with #1 exhaust valve burnt. Had the valves ground, ect.. Put it back together and #2 intake valve is hanging open. If I take the cam. out it seals fine under a 30 psi. leak down test. When checking the lifter on #2 intake it's hard as a rock and the others are nice and spongy. I took the lifter apart and cleaned it, it looked fine no broken spring or Anything scored.it back toghter and it's still hard a rock, valve doesn't seal. It seams like the lifter is all the way bottomed out. Why is the valve still hanging open? Replies to this message: pipeman (Dec 11, 2006 8:35 am)

Replying to: tarrantt90 (Dec 03, 2006 12:35 pm) Check thje oil passages inside the "folowers" lifter and also how easy is moving inside. They are very sensible for dirty oil. Also check the flow in the cyl. head. Remove the lifter and look inside the cyl. head for small opening on the bottom of the hole. I'm sure they are klogged. Mark
#1044 of 1692 check engine light is on!! by metro9606 Dec 12, 2006 (7:14 am)
I am thinking about buying a 96 metro hatchback. The owner of the car is original. The check engine light has come on in the last months or so he says. I was wondering if anyone here has experienced the same problem? Id like to work around goin to a shop to have it tested! Replies to this message: pipeman (Dec 12, 2006 8:43 am)

Replying to: metro9606 (Dec 12, 2006 7:14 am) What millage? Second - if the engine runs fine, do not worry about the engine lights - CO2 oxy sensor. Check the engine - drive longer period time more that 1/2 hrs. and check the engine in idling for ligths for oil pressure. Remeber oil must be hot. Check the lights on dashborad. If nothing come red, do not worry. Let mem know about the millage.
#1046 of 1692 Headlight failures I have enjoyed .. ! by dangerdude Dec 19, 2006 (9:44 am)
Dear Fellow Metrophiles, I've solved this dilemma and thought I'd tell all about it. Should your low beam headlights quit, and you can only flash your high beams .. here's what it is. Under the dash & up over the clutch pedal (remove front lower dash cover) (3 screws) Look up and find a white plastic multi-pin harness connector. Loosten the holding straps so you can rotate teh plugand you'll see a burnt spot inside the plug. It's a toasted pin. Cut the two wires and re-splice them outside the connector. Voila! Low beams again. This has happened to me TWICE. Different pins inside same connector two different times. Same remedy. Hope this helps somebody!

Now may be you can help with my 1998 it is a 1.3 auto runs great but for this dumb light service Eng soon that I have try ed to get to go out I have changed the ecm fuel pump and a few other parts why you ask well it stalls at time out of the blue it will restart but it may take a few turns of the key. It will start for a split sec and quit any where from 5-10 times then run fine. I have check the codes with a obd II scan tool and get 3 flashes then a few seconds later a 4th then the letter E [error code] I am left to guessing may be a bad ground some where I have been checking all of them one at a time. In my old Chevy it did some thing like this and it turned out to be the module. Any help would be much appreciated Thanks Mike
