SOURCE: wont start
i have a 91, this happens to me but it says STARTER DISABLED on the display. If the 90 is the same, it is an anti theft feature. On the ignition key there is a black square thing after the teeth of the key. The system needs to recognize the black square to start the car, so if it is warn down you will have this problem. Get a spare made with that special key only some key copier places have it. But on mine if you wait 3 minutes after the message shows up, you can then start it successfully.
Good luck!
SOURCE: Cannot remove the pulley from
I replaced my water pump on my 92 olds, and the pulley will look slightly different because it's newer, but just make sure its the right one. The pulley does not come off of the water pump, both the water pump and pulley have to be changed. Your new one should come with both the pump and pulley already connected

Ok, you have three sensors on this engine that work together to manage the temperature reading that are sent to the gauge. i recommend checking all three to be safe. i will list the sensors and, locations below.
1. Coolant temperature sensor- Under hood, driver side, upper engine area, above
transmission bell housing, mounted in driver side
end of intake manifold.
2. Engine Temperature sensor- Under hood, driver side, upper engine area, mounted
on rear cylinder head
3. Temperature switch.- Under hood, center, lower engine area, above oil
filter, rear of coolant temperature sensor, mounted
in engine block

Any kind of lights on dash? Check engine? anti theft? oil/gas?
