marcus,
 
You are welcome. I am not aware of any engine swaps into Auroras. Swapping a 4.6 Cadillac Northstar has been speculated; some people say it should work, others say no. There are enough differences between '95 Auroras and later years that that swap would at least require the ECM to be swapped, too.

V6 or V8? How many miles? Does the '01 have an oil-pressure display? If so, what does it read? Is the light on only at idle rpm or higher, too? How is the oil level?

its a v6 with 70k. the dic reads "low oil pressure" and the oil light on the dash comes on at the same time. this is only when i start it up after it has been sittin for hours. the light and the dic message pops on and off for few minutes then goes out after driving for about 5 to 10 min. and now the check engine light has come on and stays on. the oil level is fine, i just checked it yesterday. the "low oil pressure" diaplay and oil light on come on after starting and goes out after a few minutes of driving. maybe this has something to do with the check engine light?

97 Aurora Stalling after warming up by anita3

97 Aurora just replaced crank shaft sensors, but the car still wants stall when idling and warmed, but when it gets ready to stall and you give it some gas, it bogs down and dies out. Any suggestions to what could be causing this problem ??

Les,
I have had exactly the same problem (same year, same car, etc.) and it has been in to several mechanics with no luck. Have you gotten any help with this problem?

Replaced the wires on the car as a couple of them had burn marks on them. since then when in drive and idling in traffic the car now stalls. up until the wires were replaced the car did not stall. checked and there is no vacuum line off. it does this after the car has been running about 10 minutes and continues to do it while you are idling in traffic. any ideas what could be the problem now?

Did you also change the plugs and if so what kind did you put in?

Same exact problem for me today out of the blue: My 2001 Aurora V8, cold start this am ran terribly rough and sputtering, "low oil pressure" alert on the dic and then the engine light came on - after about 10 minutes of warm up and 3 restarts to try and reset any computer flukes, the engine had warmed up to temp and all was running nicely again. Same repeated later that day - engine light started "flashing" this time. I sat and did not drive, warmed up car idle, then lights went out and ran smoothly again no problems at operating temp.
Stopped and ran a computer engine code check at Monroe, they said it read "misfiring cylinder" - try a tune up first.
I'll try that first after Christmas before a full scan is done at the Cadillac dealer - more to come...
