How do I turn off the hazards??
Did you have to reset or reset the crankshaft position sensor?
No
@SalemDoyle Ok. Thanks for the quick reply. Just had one installed today and I'm still having the stalling problem
thanks that's what I've been looking for, But I'm gonna get help with it,
the sound is very disappointing, exspected a louder sound, what gives a louder sound that's what I'm looking for, but good video
I have a 1999 GT coupe I need help with my engine can you help me find an engine
I need some help with my 1999 Grand Prix
Getting some for my 08 impala ss u think they would fit I got 18 in rims
This car has 18s too but still required a small spacer. These calipers are huge
This video helped me more than you will ever know! Thank you so very much!
I highly recommend that you have a 3/8 impact socket since that and a hammer will get those 10mm bolts off if they are corroded and go ahead and order the bolts along with the hub, better to have um and not need up than need um and not have um
I know the 3800 f body cars don't get a lot of love but damn i guess ill have to watch this instead lol
Sweet! I don't even need to do the waterpump on my 3800 yet, but now i know it's pretty simple, makes me like that car even more lol...thanks.
Ever check tge fuel pump resister in fender
I love this video and have used it step by step with my 2004 Monte Carlo ss. My only complaint is I have no clue how I’m supposed to drive the gasket in.
What size tap did you use to make the threads on both parts?
I have codes reading bank 1 sensor 1, and Bank 1 sensor 2. Could both be bad or does it have something to do with my wiring
What’s all the bolt sizes. Everyone says a different size
Nice video easy job
Same steps for 2008 Altima 3.5, thanks...
We had those in Australia. From the series 1 1988 VN Holden Commodore to the latest Ecotec 3.8lt V6 in the series 2 2004 VY Commodore. Then the Alloytec disaster happened

When I plug mine in it keeps blowing the radio fuse does anyone know why?
Working on a 2017 and can find shit
I know that feeling. I recently lost my grandmother, who I was very close with. I knew it was coming soon, but it is not something you can ever prepare for. Her passing is what has motivated me back into W/H Body cars with the 3800, and the reason I found your channel. I picked up an 88 Oldsmobile and I am swapping the L36 LIM/UIM with the L26 one, just to get it working, then I am probably jumping straight into a turbo setup.
I use to build engines for the Ford motors company and every single component is used from the junk yard that’s why all these engines timing chains break in less then 50k miles and sold for new 😂 sprockets, and chains should always be new
Doesn't unplugging egr valve or udingva block off plate make your car run hotter? Alot of people say ut dies,bjust wondering any one's opinion.
No not really
@@SalemDoyle oh great, people online were saying it does, I was a little confused. Ty
I am drag racing my 05 Grand Prix GTP and I was wondering what your reaction times look like and if you have any tire spin off the line?
When does VVT kick in?!
Can we have the 05 video when u changed out your radio please
That car is gone already
You da man ! Thank you soo much brother 🙏
I'd really like to have a grand national or monte box of anyone has one motor or not
Are mods worth doing on a v6 Buick lacrosse?
Muy buen video
Let's not forget the dashboard warp was a huuuuge problem. Have it on mine and getting it fixed.
Hey I had a question for this project. I did the tare down and clean up last month and ready to start to put everything back together. For the new head bolts, the two size shorter/ longer lengths. I cannot remember for the life of me where the short/long bolts go. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Longer goes under the valve cover, shorter goes outside
Thank you!
My bolts kept breaking with the torque Wrench i followed the diagram and everything
Whats the pros and cons of this is completely skipped in this video. I love saying f the Government
Fuck that
My high and low beams wouldnt fit in them properly, also the turn signal was sealed off so if that bulb dies, i need a whole new assembly. Akkon sucks
If only Koenigsegg would have putted this great 60° v8 engine with 2 turbos instead of what it has...
Im going to attempt this in a few weeks on my 97 N/A park ave. Do tou have any tips on getting the the elbows that remain in the block out? What would you say time wise for this job for a fairly mechanically inclined home mechanic? I can handle small bocks but never really messed with newer stuff. Great video, and explanation.
My dad's got a '12 base cruze. was planning on trading or selling it when he hands it down for a 99 GTP like yours, just a sedan maybe. Pontiacs have been a constant in my family since they got here in the turn of the 20th century. Great grandad loved working for them, bought a Bonneville for the family and got my grandad a grand prix for his first car. Pontiac allowed my great grandad to have a stable job once his time in the Marine Corps was up in the mid twenties and then through to the 60's.
1997 Buick Park Avenue 3800 series 2. Love this car, love the power train. Replaced the lower intake gaskets around 120k. Replaced the MAF around 150k. Replaced the front wheel bearings around 100k, 130k, 160k, 200k.... Why the factory bearing last 100k, but no replacement Ive found last more than 30k?
oh, doyle rules! not sure if I should do this preventatively when I replace my harmonic balancer tomorrow. I already have the crank seal, it's not gm but it's a good brand. I think it's timken. my original seal doesn't seem to be leaking right now but it has over 220k miles on it so idk... should I expect it to start leaking soon?
I had my head gasket go at around 125k
Lower intake bolts, did you put thread sealer or any loctite on them. Ive seen other vids that use one or the other?
What about the mileage and trip odometer? Mine just quit working but all the other gauges work. Is there a fix besides replacing the cluster? If so, do you have a video?
If bank 2 sensor is low voltage would that cause misfiring and shaking?
I Have That Same Question .
Either I'm crazy or I'm right to feel this way but my exhaust was just due to be replaced on my 2000 gt coupe, otherthan experimenting with suspension its all stock but ive installed the zzp 2.5" downpipe w cat and i feel like it could be making just a touch more torque but i swear after 80mph it takes longer to reach 100mph w this downpipe compared to old one, i may consider just putting old one back on but ill have the u bend delete welded on, i believe because this zzp downpipe is single walled besides the high flow cat that it's possibly lacking just a little backpressure it seems to need so i think it's morso the single wall of the downpipe and i dont like the way this downpipe sounds on full throttle, sounds like a lawn mower to me, it over powers the sound of dynomax mufflers, im just not as impressed by it, but it fit excellent no problems w fitment n looks good
Im putting another 2000 malibu back on the road soon, glad youre okay!
My mileage and trip quit working. All the other lights and gauges work. Is there a gear in the back of the cluster that just be replaced?
