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 condioning cooler and see if there is any thing between them ..I had a Buick that did the same thing and had to clean out the leaves out if any. it made it so the air 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 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

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. On my wife's car, it 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.

Answer:
Try to go through the grill or underneath with a long screwdriver to the latch.
