Erratic idleing and stalling |
|
Feb 08, 2010 - 8:29 PM - by Lark

I have a 95 Olds 88 royal that has been in the shop for 1 week. Our mechanic has changed practically everything in this car and every time he does something the car runs great, but when he starts it the next morning it's as if he never did the work from the previous day.
The problem is this: The car has a very erratic idle to the point that it is undrivable and stalls if I don't keep pressing on the gas. This car jumps back and forth like crazy and just can't be driven.
My mechanic was going to be replacing the computer as a least measure today and I should hear from him in the morning.
Anyone ever had this problem? My mechanic has been working on our cars for years and is great and this has become a challenge for him.

Security light problem with Olds Alero? |
|
Feb 08, 2010 - 8:33 AM - by rorybellows

This seems to be a well documented problem on these cars, I have a 2002. Well to summarize, There is a problem with the security system that causes the fuel pump to become disabled and the car will not start. The security light on the dash blinks to indicate the problem. Well if you leave the key turned to the on position for 10 minutes the light will stop blinking, you can turn the key back then try again and the car will start. I had this problem a few years back and replaced a perfectly good fuel pump for no reason. The light issue was completely random and inconvenient. Then it stopped.
Now, 2 yrs later it has happened again. I've read about disconnecting the wire to the security feature, and had even done so a few years back because I read that if you cut the wire while the car is on, the security light will stay on but it will no longer work so your fuel pump can't be shut off.
I ended up connecting it back though because I wasn't sure of the consequences and I am considering doing it again but permanently.
What would be the risk if any of doing this? Please any knowledge on this would be appreciated.

Has anyone installed a Performance Chip on an Intrigue with the 3.5 l engine? A REAL Performance Chip IC and not just a resistor or a few wires for 'grounding'. Brand, Results, etc.?
