2002 Oldsmobile Silhouette. When it starts it will run all day long. When you turn it off, if you wait five minutes it won't start. Something shutting down the injectors. I can't figure it out?

'2002 ols seilette' That's the worst spelling of the model I have seen for a long time, it's written on the back of the vehicle. I fixed all the others as well and moved it from the Miscellaneous category to make model category. You need an auto electrician with a $5,000 pro grade scan tool computer to record what happens when you try to restart the car. It is likely to be a failing sensor, or even the ECM itself.

The fuel gauge on my 1999 oldsmobile silhouette

I had this issue on my 2001 Aurora. The fuel gauge is part of the fuel pump assembly. Replacing the entire unit is expensive. I found a write-up online where a guy showed how to buy just the gauge part and repair it yourself. Took me about and hour and $23.50 in parts.

Where is the EGR valve located on 2001 Oldsmobile Silhouette?

The EGR is mounted to the intake manifold--look in the right rear area behind the throttle body mechanism. There are two 10mm nuts, as well as a 10mm clamp screw holding it down. Remove the clamp screw first, then remove the two 10 mm nuts. You should first remove the intake air hose between the air filter and the throttle body, then remove the two front engine mounts, then using a ratchet strap, pull the top of the engine forward until it contacts the radiator fans. This will give enough room the reach the EGR valve and the exhaust pipe beneath it.
