What state are you in? There is a place called pull-a-part where I live and there engines go for like 65 bucks or so. They are used and not positive to work, but you add the warranty and you are safe and covered! My dad uses them ALL the time! I just started using them and they are great!

stumped at possible causes... by sliczewsky

I have a 95 Aurora that had fuel pump, lines, fuel rail & cylinders replaced last summer. It's been running great until a few weeks ago. I started it up and massive blue smoke blew out the tail pipe and a really strong fuel smell inside the car. There was no warning there was a problem. My husband and some mechanics he works with are stumped as to where from and where to it's dumping fuel. At first, they thought it was the head gasket, nothing found. The fuel rail is also not leaking. The injectors were not replaced yet because we are not sure if it's worth trying to fix. We do want to save the car if we can find the problem. Does anyone have any idea of what could be the issue?

2001 aurora makes strange noise. by butlerj

Hi I am new to the site.
 
A few days ago i noticed a strange sound coming from my engine. I that maybe my oil was getting low, cause my bro had a car that had blown an engine after making a strange sound when he had no oil. I added oil but it still makes the sound. At first it is like a siren but then it levels off and sounds like a mini bike or a moped. It gets worse as it accelerates. I start to to really hear it as I reach 35 mph.
 
Anyone have any ideas.

Welcome. I am not a mechanic but I have a '96 Aurora. I also had a sound coming from my engine and it sounded like a roaring. I had it checked out and had to replace my serpentine belt, and my lower pully.My belt was almost broke. maybe this will help. Wish you luck.

Don't know if it would work, but I have a 97 Aurora that we're parting out because it needs a gas tank and no one seems to be able to get us one. Car runs great otherwise. My post is #78

2001 Aurora hard start when engine cold by barrystl

2001 Aurora with 98,000 miles. When I am trying to start the car and the engine is cold the engine just cranks and it seems like there is no fuel getting to the engine. After a 2-3 attempts to start the engine the car starts, but the engine seems to rev up a bit before settling down to a nominal RPM. When the engine is not cold, it starts just fine. I have checked the battery (fine), no codes being reported. Everything else appears fine. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

I am having the same problem. Did you receive any feedback on what is causing the hard starts? When my engine starts the RPM gauge goes all the way to 8,000rpm, even though the engine in idling normal. I turn off the ignition and start it again and the RPM gauge resets.
