Take the two motor mounts off the front of the van this will allow u to get to the back 3 plugs or u can crawl underneath where the exhaust comes down at there is enough room to do it that way also

Oldsmobile van 1999 blew spark plug

You can buy what is called a heli coil. That fills the spot where the plug was. Also, I would do a compression check on that cylinder.

I need to replace a coil pack on my 2000 Olds Silhouette. I know I have to rotate the engine. But am unsure on how to do it correctly.

you do not have to rotate the engine to change the coil packs. just turn the van off and unplug the coil pack un bolt it and pull the spark plug wires off

1999 plymouth voyager has a sip to it what to do for it need help

First thing to try is change the spark plugs and spark plug wires,that will usually fix this problem,these vans are tough and don,t have any major problems so keep the repairs simple.I assume you ment the van has a "skip" to it,correct.

How do you change spark plugs on a 1999 oldsmobile silhouette i can get the front three plugs but i have no idea how to get to the back three.

I have a tool for removing the spark plug boot on sale at http://taeckertindustries.com/prod05.htm

After removing the boot, use a combination of extensions and universal joints with your ratchet wrench

Wlhat will it cost to repair #2 & 5 cylinders that are misfiring on a Olds Silhouette van?

Find someone with a Tech II scanner or an otb scanner and have them check to confirm it is the cylinders and not the spark plug wires or something.

1999 oldsmobile silhouette van won't start. no power to fuel pump

I have a silhouette and it had the same problem
Follow the fuel pump wiring harness to where it plugs into the floor of the van--pull the connectors apart--they will probably be corroded, and you will possibly have to change both wiring harnesses or connectors.

How do you change the spark plugs on a 1999 silhouette???

http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_do_you_change_spark_plugs_in_a_Silhouette

check out this thread. Sounds like a bit of a bear for those rear plugs, similar to my truck. with plugs, it is important to have additional extensions, perhaps a u-joint extention and some patience.
