My 1999 olds cutlass will not accept any gasoline in it it's bagging back out of the tank

had same problem. i solved my problem by using gasoline with 10% ethenole. usually takes two or three tank fills. this cleaned my sensors and the engine light went out. my engine light was on for several years before i accidently tried this. if your sensors are failing the engine light will come on in some cases. the 10% ethenol cleaned my sensors and it turn the light off. i went back to cheap gas and after one tank, my engine light came back on. it took two tanks of gasoline with ethenol before the engine light went off. i use regular gasoline and buy it at an H.E.B. grocery store that has a filling station. try this first. the sensors are not cheap and you can still have use for the gasoline. good luck.

I'll bet it misfires because of the old gasoline. Since it was sitting for that long, you should remove the old gasoline from the car and put in fresh gasoline. You might want to put in a can of seafoam in the gas tank as well to clean up anything the old gasoline could have left behind.

Next time, if you're planning to have your car sit for a few weeks or more, put fuel stabilizer (such as Seafoam) into the gas tank before you leave. That way, you can safely start it when you come back.

replace the battery.adrian,,,

sending unit in tank needs to be replced, drop down tank and replce

the guy is an idiot , there is no gas filter on the car, it is inside the gas tank and it is inside the gas pump not accessible to be changed, nissan really screwed consumer here because the new gas pump is 570 dollars... thank you nissan for screwing me.....

First disconnect and remove the battery.
Then, remove gas cap to release pressure. Than remove fuel lines and drain gas into suitable container. Next, loosen the bolts (you can use a tranny jack or have someone else help hold tank and lower it down.
Now you will want to use a BRASS punch. (do NOT use metal or it will cause a spark)
Use brass punch and hammer and loosen nut on tank counter-clockwise to loosen sending unit.
Once nut is loose, pull out sending unit and unplug the wire harness.

Reverse procedure to reinstall

You must drain all the diesel fuel out of the tank and purge the fuel lines as well or it will not start.

it is located in the gas tank

Between the fuel tank and the rear tires. Right in the center of the car. Pull the fuse for your fuel pump, run the car until it dies, loosen the fuel line on one end, then there is a clip at the other end take that off, and you done.

you should have two bolts on your 1999 olds dont forget to push your calber back.you can use a srewdriver for that.. before you lossen the bolts or your new pads will not go on.if you thik it might be four then look at a brake diogram on line. just type in brakes for a 1999 olds or something to that effect and it will show you the bolts good luck............
