Like thousand other Venture owner, my low coolant light came on, I look
around and no external coolant leaks but smell.
I check the oil : oil cap & PCV are coated with white sludgy crap.

So I found out why cylinder number 5 wasn't firing and I temporarily fixed
by soldering a new leg onto the number 5 injector driver transistor. I need
a permanent solution. Electronic stores can't seem to cross reference the
number, junk yards are telling me $100 weather the PCM ...

I have 1985 G20 chevy van with a 305. Should the oil pressure switch be
closed or open with the engine running.

My Van (1993 Astro engine code W 154,000 miles)

HC's at 15 MPH (1475 RPM)

I have a 2001 Buick Century and the rear right (passenger side) power
window is not working.  How do I test to see what is wrong?  I do not
think it is the switch since neither the one at the window nor the one
at the driver door works.  So how do I test to see if it is the relay

It seems I am always replacing either struts or mounts or both on my
1991 Buick Regal. I am the second owner . It only has 185,000 K on it

Recently I got the check engine soon light on a 91 Buick Park Ave 3.8 L
VIN Series.  I checked the trouble codes and 41 came up along with 31
(Park/Neutral Switch), but thats a different story.  Anyhow, I went to a
local junkyard and found the sensor I needed.  Right after I ...

1985 Chevy van g20 305 ci auto tranny
gauges fuse pops, Think I could figure this out if I had a decent schematic.
Resistance from the fuse holder to ground is a dead short with the ignition
switch in the run position open when off.

Vehicle: 1994 Chev 3500 2wd dually, 454ci V8

When cruise control is set, and vehicle is shifted into neutral the engine
speed redlines. Is something broken? I know when I do this to my 1995 monte
