Turn key ignition forward but do not start engine. Pump gas pedal fully 3 times then engine light will start flashing. Do not pump gas pedal short quick pumps. After light is flashing turn ignition off then start engine. The check engine will reset it's self.

If u open the bonnet find a way to get an oil pump or go to a mechanic and he will let u use it open the oil screw on the engine pump all the oil out next get a cloth and rap it around a iron bar and stick it on with cello tape stick it in to the engine and wipe it dry and put new oil in the engine if this does not work tell the mechanic to check the engines RPM service because it could be your acceleracion

What causes a 1997 chevy lumina and check engine light to stays on?

You need to find out what codes are set causing the CHECK ENGINE light to illuminate. GO to any Advance Auto or AutoZone and they will read the codes for free. Do not assume that just because a code mentions a part that the part is faulty, especially if there are multiple codes set. Come back here and tell us the codes and we can help you determine your problem. Without the code(s), there are dozens of things that can set the CHECK ENGINE light.

1997 chevy lumina oil light is on and engine is ticking

check the oil level then the oil pressure with a gage.if this is okay then how long has it been since the oil was changed as very dirty oil gets so thin that it won`t do its job.you may just have normally worn engine components if you have a high mileage car.the oil pressure will help with the diagnoises.and direction of repair

1997 chevy lumina 3.1 engine misfire. check engine light flashes? can you help?

The flashing is a warning that serious damage could happen to the converter if you keep driving it like that. You should have the PCM scanned to help find the problem as it could be a number of things going on, a bad spark plug to a burnt valve.
