#689 of 849 93 Z-34 left tail lights & right turn signal by tgeorge2 Dec 05, 2005 (5:28 am)
The bulbs are not burnt out but some of the left rear tail lights are not working, but the left turn signal works fine. However, with the right turn signal, I have to put upward pressure and hold it "up" in order for the right signal to flash. Can any of you give me some direction on either of these items? (no pun intended!) HELP!
#690 of 849 The little Lumina that couldn't by michellelp Dec 13, 2005 (11:26 am)
Overnight my Lumina has developed some serious mechanical issues. Literally, I parked in my driveway after an uneventful ride home, and the next morning it had major mechanical issues when I started it. It was the first freezing night of the winter year. It shudder and shakes, the engine is vibrating ALOT more than it should. It has no acceleration, 30 mph is the top speed it will hit. It acts starved for gas. After taking it to a shop, I was told that two of the cylinders have very little compression. So they cleaned the carbon out of them and said it was fixed. It's not. In fact it got worse. They even checked fuel injectors, which are fine. It is eating ALOT of gas, and really working the tranny to shift into higher gears. Has anyone out there seen something like this before? Since the mechanics can't tell me what is wrong, I'm really getting desperate here. This car has 190,000 miles on it but has run like a champ from day 1, until now. Anyone got an idea?

#693 of 849 door locks off and on by hrh Jan 04, 2006 (11:30 am)
I can never tell when the driver's side is going to lock behind me, or not. Anyone have this problem, or knows how to fix it?
#694 of 849 reply hrh by pluto5 Jan 04, 2006 (3:28 pm)
When I got my Lumina I read that some people brush against the switch when they exit thus locking the doors unintentionally.   I always carry an extra door key on a different ring than the ignition key just to be safe.
#695 of 849 Radiator and heater hoses by mailman2 Jan 08, 2006 (5:13 am)
Which are the best hoses to use, Gates, Goodyear, or whatever? I have a 1998 Lumina 3.1, how hard is it to change the hoses?
#696 of 849 reply mailman2 by pluto5 Jan 08, 2006 (9:18 am)
I have never gone wrong with Gates hoses.   It's easy to change the hoses but the thermostat is not. Replies to this message: mailman2 (Jan 08, 2006 4:40 pm) antmantank (Jan 09, 2006 8:00 am) mailman2 (Jan 09, 2006 8:32 pm)

Replying to: pluto5 (Jan 08, 2006 9:18 am) The upper hose on the rt side seems tough, the one on the radiator, it's under the cover. How do you get a clamp on and tighten it? How about the by pass hose? Where is the thermostat, top left on engine? Replies to this message: antmantank (Jan 09, 2006 8:00 am) mailman2 (Jan 09, 2006 8:32 pm)
#698 of 849 Re: Low Coolant Light [mike0166] by antmantank Jan 09, 2006 (7:57 am)
Replying to: mike0166 (Nov 17, 2005 10:32 am) I had tha tsame promlen when i changed my radiator. All you have to doo is make sure the coolant level is correct and mabye bleed the coolant system. There should be two bleader valves one just over top of the water pump on a black pipe a six mili....bolt. And on the therm housing there is a nother with a flat head screw. while the car is running at normal operating temp, open the therm side until coolant streems out, let all the air out.close it and do the same to the other side. that should fix the problem . coolant level sensor is on the side of the radiator. and air might be sitting around where the coolant temp sensor is located. that should fix it. if not, buy a new sensor level it is a sinch to put in..
