I have a 1999 oldsmobile aurora, northstar motor. I was told I need to replace my purge valve solenoid. Can someone please tell me where it is located?

Under car,usually mounted near or in front of gas tank

yes the radio antenna motor is defective, replace it.

I assume you know that the only circulation happening unti lthe thermostat opens at its nominal temperature is through the heater core if in use. If peering into the radiator opening, you will not see more than the most minimal movement until the thermostat opens.

You may have an airlock in the system and it could be in the heater lines so if you have done a coolant change or had the system open, you need to purge the system of air.
If you have no radiator cap like many newer vehicles, this isn't as easy to accomplish. You will have to pass through several cycles of warmup and cool-down and each time refill the reservoir to the marked level with coolant mix. During this, you will have to have the heater control set to warm the interior so that the coolant is forced to circulate throughout the whole system.

it's the oilpan gasket. it's a northstar motor. the caddys with the northstar do it to. mine does it as well. just go to autozone and get some leak stop :) within a thousand miles you'll be nice and dry. it's just a problem the motors had for a few years

replace the bolwer motor relay mounted on the fire wall the relay is stuck in the on poition.

The starter is located under the intake manifold.
