I have a 2004 V8

You will have to give me more to go by

You will loose 1 or 2 COP Ignition Coils
a year,not at one time though

The EGR Valve will fail,you can unplug the vacuum
hoses,plug them & drive up a hill to test that

All your testing will be done hot & around 35 mph &
on a slight curve where your off & on the gas & up &
down some

For ignition issues drop down to 25 mph approaching
a hill & try easing up it increasing very slowly on gas
& the coils will misfire & set a PO300 Codes

At 100,000 miles you replace the front 2 (only)
O2 Sensors,as they get slow on the switching counts
New ones will make your car seem new again & instant
throttle response. Only the front sensors,leave the rear
monitor sensors alone,they stay

The Spark Plugs are special to the LS & get replaced every 3 years
not over 60 to 70,000 miles.

Have to use premium gas,or you get a knock,
you can not adjust out

Clean MAF Sensor with CRC MAF Cleaner.

Try cleaning the fuel injection system with seafoam and replacing the fuel filter. Look up seafoam on youtube. BTW really really really really bad idea running a vehicle on jack in gear.

My car screeches when its started and when accerlerating. Someone just replaced the alternator and belt and now my car screeches and the air conditioner doesn't get cold. What could be wrong?

The belt has not been tightened properly, it may still be loose. wiggle the belt with your hand, it should feel firm, if it feels loose, that's your problem.

1993 Saturn sc2 stutters and backfires accerlerating

Check to see it th chain guides are worn. this can cause a retarded or advance on timing. Also do a compression check if you can, this will show that the valves are opening and closing on time. Run some injection cleaner through it first as a sticky injector could also be an issue.

You could change the fluid and add a good conditioner like lucas, but even if it works better, you are only buying time. Unit is likely beginning to wear out.

Car idles fast when stopped and is now stalling, hard to restart

The Buick 3.8 has a Mas Air Flow Sensor, actually all fuel injected cars do, yet in the 3.8 it reacts just like your describing when it goes out. If you remove the breather hose you will see a honey comb thing in the intake , That is it. The 3.8 will not start properly without that hose not attached and the air filter has to be present and clean.
