Replying to: gonahgal (May 07, 2007 5:35 am) You should still be able to enjoy your Corsica for a little while longer. My 1995, V6, 3.1 liter just died the other day with 224,000 miles. After many repairs we are finally sick of bringing her back to life and are letting her go to the big scrapyard in the sky!

Replying to: hoodlatch (Oct 30, 2006 2:40 pm) That same thing was happening to me and after making a sharp fast turn, I found myself in the middle of traffic, sitting on my bumper! I ended up having to replace the ball joint......GOOD LUCK!

Replying to: hoodlatch (Oct 30, 2006 2:40 pm) Not only could it be a ball joint, which often sounds like a "thunk" or a "pop" when going around a corner or hitting a large bump, but you may also want to check your strut and strut mount, and you may also want to check your wheelbearings. A good piece of advice is grab on your tire outside the car and try wiggling it to see if there is any play. If there is, it's more than likely one of these problems.

#14 of 27 NEED HELP!!! by camaronut70 Nov 26, 2007 (3:54 pm)
91 berreta gt 3.1 stalling when warms up to temp or 15 to 20 minutes of run time. It doesn't matter what idle speed it is at either. First off, I have replaced plugs,wires,fuel pump,fuel filter,crank sensor,coil packs, computer and the box next to it. It still is doing the same thing! The starter is new, altenator hoses radiator etc etc. This is my step sons firts car and he can't even drive it due to it breaking down. He needs the car desperatly to get back and forth to school in about a week that is getting shorter. So far I have followed the advice of people and mechanics and have gotten no where but spending more money. Oh, I checked the fuses and the fusable link near the firewall as well as the enjector pulse which are fine. What in the world is goin on with this car. when it runs it has plenty of power and has no hesistation. I also, unpluged the egr valve to see if it would make a difference and that didn't help either. If you have any clue as to what might be wrong I would be greatfull. Thanks

Replying to: ldub (Nov 27, 2007 5:02 pm) It could be a number of things. First does it sound like it is going to start but doesn't or does it just crank over cont. without any acts of starting. If it is just cranking over make sure you can hear the fuel pump run for a few seconds when you turn the key forward without starting it. That would let you know the fuel pump is working. If it continues to run non stop or doesn't run at all it is most likely bad. Second check to see if you have spark on all your cylinders. You can unplug them one at a time and put a plug in the wire and ground it on the car (bate metal area) best if you have someone helping you so you can watch the arc. It should be blue or white. White being the best. No spark means usually a bad coil pack. the coil packs are on the front of the engine in the middle and are a bear to get to. This is to get you started to help narrow the situation down. Hope it is something simple. If you need more help let me know and I can tell you how to test other parts and what to look for. Later
