Strange problem's!!

[Screamin99]

well I ordered my Oil Gear through GM, because their is no Oil Pump or so they told me..

and the last time I drove it before yesterday the same problem happend in the same place..

car started warming up (I've changed the T-Stat) but the first time I was driving it, she still had the old T-Stat in.. and upon driving she felt really sluggish after I got to driving for a while, like it was in to high of gear, so I gear from 4th to 3rd.. and its still doing it.. chug chug chug... no oil light no nothing. just a SES light, I cant check the ses light because I have never been anyplace to check it at.. its like when it starts warming up it just starts doing this? why? :mad:

[Screamin99]

please!!

someone whats going on!

the car just jerks and jerks.. what could that be? it only does it after your driving it for a while, then its horriable.. seems like its doing it when it warms up??

You can go to Autozone, NAPA, Advanced Auto Store, Discount Auto Store, or Murrays to check the SES light.
I have no idea what is causing that though.

agreed... stop by an auto parts place and have them pull the code that is causing your check engine light. Once you do that, you can either ask them or post on here to at least give us some clue as to the problem. Dont go to a garage to check teh code as they will charge you for it while the parts places are free...
if i had to guess though, id say either a coil pack or ignition module, simply becuase its occuring after it heats up and you said the car is jerking around... assuming you are experiencing a missfire..

thats what it seems like to me too, like something isnt sparking..

its had a SES light for a very long time! and its P1361... well I got a thing all about how to fix that code saved on my computer.. if it is my Ignition conrtrol module I can get a new one free of charge because its still under warrenty.. it may be the new Ignition control module or it may be a coil pack.. it may even be the wiring comming off the Igniton control.. but I was just wanting to make sure you guys didnt think it was anything major..


and one more thing, is it true that if you dont hear any nocks or sounds when you start your engine its alright you don't need a rebuild?

because my oil gear has went out apperently, because after a while when the car heated up, the oil pressure would just drop down into the red if you werent giving it any throttle? GM said its probally that gear because I dont have a oil pump? you think that will solve the low oil pressure?
