Question: 1995 Cadillac Fleetwood V8 Two Wheel Drive
Automatic 107,000 miles. I just bought this 1995 Cadillac Fleetwood brougham in excellent
condition and right when you turn the car on the temperature light stays on. The
light will flicker on and off and will stay off when the car is on an incline or
decline up or down a hill. Then will the car gets level it'll come on again. I checked
the engine coolant level and its just over the line. It seems to be running a little
hot, but I'm kind of scared to keep it running too long.Answer:
The temperature light could be from a few things; check
in front of the radiator between the air conditioner cooler and see if there is
any thing between them, I had a Buick that did the same thing and I had to clean
out some leafs. The leafs prevented the air flow and was not able to cool the coolant.
Also check to see the wire going to the sending unit if it is hitting something
like exhaust manifold. Check the belts to make sure they are adjusted properly. If the problem
persists then I would change the thermostat.
Question: 1990 Cadillac Fleetwood V8 Two Wheel Drive
Automatic 114000 miles. Can I replace a 1990 Cadillac 5.0L-307 CID-Oldsmobile engine
(if that is what it is) with a 1968-1980 350, 2 or 4 Main Cap Bolt, Small Block
Chevy Engine? Casting # 3970010
Answer: A small block Chevy
is the same, use some old parts, block and heads will be different.
Question: 1990 Cadillac Fleetwood V8
Front Wheel Drive Automatic 150,000 miles. The car will not start.
I pulled the starter and had it checked out (with the solenoid attached to the side).
Both the starter and solenoid are in good shape and working. I also pulled the battery,
yet again in good shape. When I put the starter back into the car, it just clicks
like the solenoid is burned out. The car does not have the solenoid up top, just
attached to the starter itself. I turned the motor to make sure it is not binding
up and the crank and pulleys turn freely. I checked the wiring with a voltmeter
and all is good. Am I missing something here?
Answer: Use a remote starter or a screwdriver
on the battery terminal to the solenoid small terminal with a purple wire-did it
crank over? If so look for power at the purple wire power-power there you have a
bad starter. No power while key is in start position test the transmission range
switch/neutral safety switch and ignition switch.
Question (Follow Up): The problem was the neutral
safety switch. I replaced and now the car works fine.
Question: 1992 Cadillac Fleetwood V8 Front
Wheel Drive Automatic 147,000 miles. I've been trying to get my hood open but it
seems like some thing broke loose at the end of the cable inside the hood because
when I go to pull the hood latch its loose, and I tried pulling harder on it but
it won't open. It's time for me to change the oil and I can't get to it!
Answer: Try to go through the
grill or underneath with a long screwdriver to the latch.
