I would ohm check the injectors with a multi meter. If the #1 injector is significantly different than the other three than you found the problem. The other possibility is the dark green wire is shorted to ground. All the injectors are supplied power by the pink with black wire. Each injector is then controlled by the pcm. If the dark green wire is not shorted to ground than a noid light would be needed to see if the PCM driver for that injector has failed allowing the injector to stay permanently on and essentially flooding the engine until it stalls.

I’m happy to assist further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/jeremy_d728a59f986299fa

SOURCE: will not start after it stalls untill about 5-10 minutes

Your problem is most likey your intake gasket.They have a problems on the SOHC engines where the intake gasket shifts & starts leaking vacuum at the #1 intake runner causing a missfire on Cylinder #1.While the engine is Idling buy some throttle plate cleaner & spray throttle cleaner down at the #1 Intake runner where the intake meets the head.If engine stalls or runs rougher that's your problem.I have replaced dozens of those gaskets for tha reason!! They have a beter design gasket through saturn parts.It has a coating on it to prevent reoccurance.Also you should check you Coolant Temp Sensor,if it's ceramic it's most likely bad.Replacement is brass from saturn.Good Luck

SOURCE: 1995 Saturn SL2 DOHC motor No start fuel injector issue.

i would have to say first check the fuel injectors fuse in the under hood fuse block if blown replace it,sometimes the fuel injector harness rubs thru anywhere from where the harness comes thru the firewall all the way up to the injectors,,,if fuse is good and no bare wires to injectors,check the wires to the ignition module,,,,and if all checks ok,i would replce the ignition module,,you could have spark from it but it could not be sending the signal back to the pcm to fire the injectors,,,and if all that fails try a pcm,but i think youll find it before that,,i seen this 3 times and each time it was a wire rubbed thru near the fuel rail and it grounds out and blows the injector fuse,
hope this helped

I have a 1998 saturn SL2 with a LL1.9LL4 engine, want to switch out with a 1998 saturn SW2SW wagon with a 16 valve twin cam will this work? SL2 engine blown, SW2SW ****** is going!

If you are replacing a DOHC 1998 engine with another DOHC 1998 engine yes it will work. Saturn only made two engines from 91-99 and they all had the same block, difference some were SOHC and others were DOHC. The number "1" after SL or SC or SW means SOHC while the number "2" after SC or SL or SW means a DOHC.

Note if one is an auto and the other manual you are going to have to swap the flywheel/ring gear stuff over.

Gentlepersons... have 1992SL1 engine died... gong to replace it ,,, but all involved want to know engine type dual cam? vs ? ... can you tell me how to determine whats in the car now.. vin# nails it...

That is pretty easy. If your Saturn is an SL1 it is single cam if it is an SL2 it is dual cam. That is the only difference between an SL1 and an SL2 - Saturn didn't even bother to put a tag or emblem anywhere on the body to differentiate between the the two models. The 8th digit in the VIN will confirm this for you. If the 8th digit is "7" it is a Dual Overhead Cam (DOHC) engine. If the 8th digit is a "9" then it is a Single Overhead Cam (SOHC) engine. When you have seen both engines, it is pretty obvious by simply looking at them. The DOHC cam cover is much wider and has 2 "humps" with spark plugs and wires going down the center between the humps. The SOHC cam cover is narrow and the plugs and wires go down one side.

Also in the 1992 model year, the DOHC engine was equipped with Multiport Fuel Injection. (MFI) The fuel injectors (4 of them) were located in the top of the intake manifold. The SOHC engine had Throttle Body Injection (TBI) The two injectors were located in the throttle body.

I don't have any pictures of the cam covers, but I have pictures of the cam cover gaskets (AKA Valve Cover Gaskets) you can very easilly see the difference.

Is there more than one type of ignition coil for a 1999 sL2

All saturn engines 91-99 are essentially identical 1.9L 4 cylinder, with the exception of the heads, and the engine mounts on the 91. I had both DOHC and SOHC and they all used the same coil, though there were some minor differences in base mounting. Each coil is attached to two plugs. Suppose there are GM and aftermarket types available.

check your wiring for dirty connections or broken wires, you may have wires that are rubbed through or connectors that are not making full contact. you will need an ohm meter and check wires for continuity. a wiring diagram will be needed.

2002 Saturn SC1 - Starts fine and runs well until the engine gets warm. Then I will step on the gas peddle and the engine will die. Sometimes it won't die it will just have no power to move. Fuel Pump?...

Most Likely Coolant temp sensor & connector.Located in cyclinder head under upper radiatior hose.Two wires to connector yellow & black.Replacement sensor is brass (from saturn) Original is ceramic & cracks cause poor performance,stalling,idle issues.Also check plugs & wires for carbon tracking.Replace plugs & wires as a set all at once.Hope this helps
