    I am very new to mechanics where is the accessorie belt, I realized the fan is not running, I must fix that I guess to help cooling and it might be the problem... but it sounds like a belt to me

  • Anonymous Sep 12, 2012

    This is the belt/belts that run the altenator,a/c,p/s etc.

  • Anonymous Sep 13, 2012

    How can I tell if its loose ?? it seems they are all around the same tension... I know my clutch slips going up steep hills as well and the engine leeks a bit of oil, just enough to be noticeable but not enough that it drips on the ground ..

SOURCE: intermitent high idle

Have your timing checked. Retarded timing can cause the issues you have. A quick adjustment could fix it.

1991 Cadillac DeVille (has 110,000 miles on it) suddenly dies while driving. Starts and idles fine, but shuts off after driving only 1-2 blocks. What's wrong and how do we fix it?

There are many things that can contribute to this problem. It sounds like it may be ignition related. Possibly an ignition control module or ignition coil. The check engine light coming on while driving is the key to finding the problem. The light comes on when the computer finds a problem and will then store it in its memory. Have the codes checked for what the computer has found to be at fault and with a little diagnostics, should lead you to the problem

After highway driving for 2 hours and stopping for gas the car would initially start and then stall, it would run again until the car cooled for 30 minutes.

Sounds like your coolant level might be low. At highway speed you probably have enough coolant and with the air passing thru the radiator keeps the temp down, but at idle not so much. Or depending whether you have a belt drive or electric fan. Belt driven, could need a new belt.

Erratic idle

It is not the ignition problem, it is a fuel delivery problem. 1- First need to clean very well the throttle valve to remove built up gums. 2- Make sure the vacuum hose connected to area near the throttle valve not clogged up, rubber connection is tight or replace them. After this still not improving, need to replace fuel filter. If it still not improving, have the fuel delivery rate checked, before changing the fuel pump. Good luck.

2002 sequioa sudden stall

Often when the battery is disconnected or replaced the computer will lose it's learned idle settings. You could try letting the engine idle in park until the engine temperature comes up to normal and leave it like that for a few minutes, then put the Air con on and let it idle again for a few minutes, then switch the air con off and put it into drive. If it does not stall, let it idle in drive for 2 minutes or so, and then do the same with the Air con on. This should relearn the base idle settings and stop it from stalling on you. Before you carry out this procedure you should make sure that when you replaced the battery you didn't remove any other plugs or knocked anything that may be causing the fault. If you try this procedure and it still stall when you select drive, you will need to get a Mechanic to check the vehicle over.

Hope this helps,
Mark.
