I've just changed my engine out in my 2001 Kia Rio. How much transmision fluid does this vehicle call for to be 'full'. Thanks in advance. Face

You forst need to see if that cylinder is getting fuel, this requires an injector flow test be run by a dealer or a well equipped shop, also you at home can check for intake manifold vauum leaks with a can of carburetor spray. You should also run a compression test on all cylinders and see if that one cylinder is lower than 5% from the hightest reading.

If it doesnt shift at proper speeds when its driving, then yes, the transmission. Make sure the fluid is full when engine at operating temp., idle. in park. If it's full, and no obvious shifter linkage problems, then you need to have it looked at by a transmission shop.

yes it can, also you may have left off the ground cables or left a wire connection off or loose

the distertor was the problem i had with mine .i replaced it and it gave me no more problems .i drove it to 2009 then tradedit in

you can buy antifreeze at advance,walmart,etc.that states on the container,Can be used in any vehicle. make sure to read the label.

try checking all fluid levels to start with or perhaps it due for an oil change or routine maintence

The TCM is stuffed up in the drivers side dash just left of the steering column on this disposable vehicle. There are 2 modules there. One is a pcm and the other is a tcm. The onewith the large single black plug is the TCM.

Fallow the "UPPER" Radiator Hose from the Radiator to the Engine Cylinder Head, The Thermostat Housing is the Unit that the UPPER Radiator Hose Connects to. Theres is 1 BOLT (TOP) & 1 NUT (BOTTOM) that you Remove to Gain Access to the Thermostat itself. Hoping this Helps you out There . Have A Great Day.

Try replacing or swapping fuel pump relay its in the main fuse box close to the battery

i am having the same problem, thought it was ful pump, no go, I heard they had problms with the fuse box and wiring harness, my mechanic messed with mine a few days ago and it has not did it since, but I am looking at changing that. GL
