I apologize if this has been asked/posted before but my internet has been waaay slow these last couple days. took 2 minutes to load this page and trying to search just isnt happening.

as the title states I am attampting to install an aftermarket HU in my cousin's 2001 SSEi. I am using the scosche ...

thanks for the replies. the car is in on a road trip at the moment. will check the voltages when the car returns.

i forgot all about the fuse block under the rear seat. perhaps it is something as simple as the fuse....i hope!!

01 SE with manual controls. the hvac blower will not work. i bought another motor from the yard and plugged in. no luck.
i double checked the 3 connectors i could see connected to the motor area and they looked good. the lights on the dash controls light up. not sure where to check next or what to ...

finished!!! took a few days with the rain and what not but the car is done.

i forgot to install the pcv valve and started it. nasty hiss-leak around and inside the intake and squealing noise with it. otherwise no issues other than the rest of the car that needs fixed....hvac no blower at all and ...

any updates to this issue? the 01 bonny se is making a similar noise after UIM and LIM change.

thanks archon. needed to order a new fuel rail and saw a few that simply listed the L number.

using the APN kit and the supplied o-rings is a big no-no!! (at least on an 01). i used them and attempted to put the fuel rail back. was very hard to get in and assumed it was because of the new o-rings ...

quick question on what engine we have. i understand the 3800 (3.8) series II, but am wondering what Lxx it is. For instance L32, L36, L...
anyone can help quick, i would appreciate it!

can't tell you the part number, but i ordered the aluminum LIM gasket and was to my house in Iowa within a week. it was considered a "special order" part and was told it would take a little longer than normal to get to me.

otherwise, try a local yard if you need one quickly.

i was referring to the sleeves that were inside with the fuel injector o-rings. i got the stove pipe installed, no problems.

as far as the throttle body, the machine shop charges $60 an hour for labor. i can get the throttle body for $25 from the yard, but i have to drive 40 miles to get it. still ...

nevermind, i just replaced the lower o-rings of the injectors and left them as is.

picking up a used throttle body tomorrow from the yard.

what i could use help with is what bolts go where on the UIM. forgot to mark where the double ended bolts go.

almost to the finish line...

on an 01 non-s c with the apn kit, do we use the sleeves provided? and if so where?

at my local parts store they are separate, thats why i asked. they sell the gaskets and grommets apart. i will just purchase them and replace them. better safe than sorry.

have everything removed and ready to begin reassembly. HOWEVER, when removing the IAC from the throttle body, a bolt snapped. i used PB blaster and went little by little. i even screwed it back in some, added more pb and then slowly started to remove again. the head of the bolt snapped off leaving a ...

i will call them first thing on monday morning. i guess i should have researched a little better before placing the order. i used gmpd about 7 years ago and didn't have any issues, but i guess times have changed?

agrazela,
i purchased a new FPR from the parts store but have yet to install. i am ...

ok, thanks to all those who have posted thus far. ordered the APN UIM kit and aluminum gasket from GM parts direct. i will begin to read the tech how-to to begin to familiarize myself with this procedure. i will post back as i am sure i will have additional questions once i begin....

thanks viper! i just saw that as well--should have actually read instead of just scanning the page! i was attempting to link to the "replacement parts" link and was getting page could not be found. anyway, thanks again.

thanks viper. can you tell me where to find APN products. i have googled, but cannot find any direct link info.

ok, looking to replace both UIM & LIM gaskets. i have read APN and Dorman and something about an aluminum gasket but not sure where to purchase or order from. any help or if someone can point me in the right direction, i would greatly appreciate it!

i was checking oreilly and advance auto (major ...

agrezela,
Thanks for all the info! I will look into all of this today.

dat was fuel coming out of the FPR, not coolant. my apologies for the coolant mix up. i was going to tie it all into one thread, but thought i would differentiate the two separate issues.

would the warp be visible if it is the plastic intake?
also, do i need gasket sealer placed on the new gasket ...
