    Junk virus email.....

    I got my first one this morning as a PM. I went to the link in a Linux Virtual Machine and it told me I had several hundred viruses and trojans and tried to install a file named install.exe. I couldn't get it to stop trying to install the file even when clicking cancel. It couldn't install...

    please tell me honestly

    My 02 V8 has 71k on it and is one of the most dependable cars I have owned. The REM module, clock spring, and valve cover gaskets were replaced under warranty. I replaced 2 failed coil on plugs.

    resistance check for coils

    Don't waste your time These coils must be tested under load using a special tester. A simple resistance check will tell you nothing. I had 2 coils to fail and both had about the same resistance as 2 good coils I checked.

    LS coils on ebay

    I bought 4 of these over a year ago and replaced 4 of my old ones. They are all still working fine. Two of my OEMs had failed which I replaced and I kept 2 originals that had not failed for spares. They look like the ones I took out of my 02 but have a different number.

    I think it's a coil

    If the code in the computer is a pending code the CEL light will not be on but you can read the code if one is set as pending in the computer.

    fuel pressure ???? and injector ohm reading

    My shop manual says 30-65psi. My 02 V8 usually runs about 42psi. I cannot find the resistance readings for the injectors. I would check each of them and if one or more is out of line with the others I would consider it/them suspect.

    CC problem/ClockSpring

    My 2002 LS did the exact same thing (cancel button did not work, resume button speeds up, etc) and the dealer changed the CC servo and PCM, which did not correct the problem. Finally they changed the clock spring and the cruise control finally worked properly. All the work was done under...

    New Person with a couple Qs on a 2000 ls v8

    I have always run 89 in my 2002 V8 and it performs beautifully with 20-21 mpg mixed city and highway. I have had my car for over 4 years. I have got as high as 28 in all interstate driving. I did try one tank full of 87 octane which performed o.k. with no knocking whatsoever, but just to be...

    new spark plugs

    I wonder how he tested them with voltmeter. I tried testing with voltmeter and two of mine that had failed tested fine. The dealer said the only way to test them is under load which requires another tester.

    02 sensor

    As I recall emission parts such as catalytic converter is covered under warranty until 7 years/80k miles or something like that. Check your manual to be sure. And don't be putting any chemical to clean it because that will destroy it or do nothing at all.

    need help

    The squealing when you step on the gas could be the drive belt slipping. Did you replace the hydraulic pump for the fan also? Have you checked to be sure the fan turns on when you turn on the A/C?

    hydraulic fan

    There is a proper procedure for bleeding air out of the system after you refill it with coolant. If you don't do that it will overheat with you.

    Those with the V8

    According to Consumer Guide the 2002 is supposed to be the most reliable of the LS cars. It was not one of the cars that they recommend not to buy. I have only had the valve cover gaskets and clockspring replaced under original warranty. I replaced 2 coils on plugs myself at a total cost...

    Another V8 misfiring

    If you remove the covers water will likely get into the cops and spark plugs and you will have some real misfires. As I recall there was a TSB about water getting in under the covers and causing misfires in cylinders 4 & 8 and had to be sealed better to keep moisture out.
