My cooliant sensor gauge keeps going up & down, while my traction control light sensor goes on & off at the same time, while my engine is running

Asked by Dave Mar 18, 2014 at 08:59 AM about the 1996 Oldsmobile Eighty-Eight 4 Dr LSS Sedan

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

As the car is running & engaging in
drive. My cooliant sensor keeps
goingup & down on my dash board &
my traction control sensor light keeps
dinging on & off. In the meanwhile on
the other side of my dashboard, the
abs sensor light stays on. I don't think
the abs light has anything todo with
what's going on with my cooliant
sensor & traction control sensor tho.

Why is it so hard to start my car? I have 98,000 miles on it and I just had the timing chain and fuel pump and fuel filter replaced. I can't get it started usually in the cold months. It keeps turning over but it takes sometimes 45 minutes of trying to start it before it gets started. I have tried using starting fluid but it still takes a long time. Once I get it started it is fine for the rest of the day. It will start right up. But if I let it sit overnight it will have the same problem in the morning. I also just put a new alternator and battery in it and all the trying to start it is just wearing the battery down to where I have to hook the jumper cables up to another car to try and get it started. Thanks. 1 Answer
