Replying to: Mr_Shiftright (May 30, 2009 8:20 am) Well what are the odds that its the fuel pressure regulator compared to the odds of it being a sticking injector? Replies to this message: Mr_Shiftright (May 30, 2009 1:44 pm)

Replying to: maxhudson_1 (May 30, 2009 1:22 pm) That's a good question. I don't really have the experience with that car to answer with any legitimacy.   Why don't you re-post your original question, with all the details, to our Answers Department? Maybe one of the technicians who visit there has a better idea for you:   ANSWERS DEPARTMENT
#126 of 133 cooling fans by sherrilumina Jun 26, 2009 (11:39 am)
I have a 97 chevy lumina. I recently had it in the shop for a problemwith starting. while there they said that the cooling fans were not coming on and that it was because of a relay switch that was stuck. They said that they cleaned it and now it is working, but I never hear the fans coming on. How do I tell if they are and where do I find the switch to clean it off myself if it's not working?

Ok so i got the power steering pump put in but i guess it only came with one screw and it needed three so my belt came off. Now i am wondering if i need to buy a new pump or if i can just get the screws and serpentine belt?
#128 of 133 Gears Jerking & gets overheated. by kelly_bear92 Aug 12, 2009 (4:22 pm)
Okay. Im only 16 years old, so lord knows i dont know what im doing... but this is my first car, and the last 2 days that I have drove it, my car has overheated and started smoking. I got someone to look at it, and they said that it was leaking antifreeze. They changed my antifreeze and put more in it. Well my temperature still keeps rising and still overheats and smokes. I dont know what to do.   Another problem is every since I got the car, when I change the gears, the car jerks pretty bad. My brother told me it was nothing, but a friend of mine said I need to have it looked at. Does anyone know what could be wrong with it/. Replies to this message: proto_call (Sep 04, 2009 3:02 pm)

Find thesource of the leak. Ask someone with experience.   I assume you have a stick shift. If so check the clutch. If it is an automatic check the transmission!
#130 of 133 3.1 Engine Wont turn over with switch by tlstoner Aug 25, 2009 (5:28 pm)
I got a 1999 lumina 3.1 automatic. Its been running great since we got it about 4 years ago. just normal maintenance, battery, and starter last year. It's got 198,000 miles on it and ran fine until today. Drove to take my daughter to dentist, no problem, got back in to leave and it won't turn over. The dash lights come on, window's work, just won't turn over with the key. I can jump across the solenoid on the starter and it turns over, start's, then dies after about 3 second's. Any advise would be appreciated. Replies to this message: mcdiarmid (Aug 25, 2009 6:30 pm) tlstoner (Aug 25, 2009 6:49 pm)

Replying to: tlstoner (Aug 25, 2009 5:28 pm) It could be your passkey/passlock system. When the key is in the 'On' position, does your security light flash? Replies to this message: tlstoner (Aug 25, 2009 6:49 pm)

Replying to: mcdiarmid (Aug 25, 2009 6:30 pm) Yes the security light is flashing. I didn't notice it earlier. Now how do I fix it?

Replying to: kelly_bear92 (Aug 12, 2009 4:22 pm) well i can tell you right now if you have a coolant leak thats not visible your lookin at a gasket leak becuase i had the same thing and unless you have someone that knows how to take apart an engine and put it back together your looking at alot of money to fix the problem but if you dont fix it it'll get worse over time and your car will lose 99.9% of its balls if it hasn't already. the gasket for a lumina isn't very expensive but it is alot of work you best bet is to get a pressure test to see where the leaks coming from and if it doesn't show anything then your pretty much screw (gaskets)
