Engine Q&A 1984 Cadillac Fleetwood

  • Why does the check engine light come on when I start my Fleetwood? It's okay if your check engine light comes on when you first start your vehicle. This is just your Fleetwood testing its circuits. The light should go off shortly. Bring your vehicle in if it doesn't.
  • Why does my Cadillac engine sound different? Strange under-the-hood noises can point to problems within your Cadillac Fleetwood engine. Tapping or knocking could mean you're low on oil. A high-pitched whistle could signal an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing can be traced back to a loose fan belt, and grinding could be a sign that something is wrong with your brakes — not the engine.
  • What could damage my Cadillac Fleetwood engine? Certain driving habits can hurt your engine. These habits include driving on an empty fuel tank, revving your engine while the vehicle is in Park, or accelerating too quickly, too soon. Help sustain your engine’s performance and efficiency by staying miles away from these bad driving practices.
  • Can I use water in my Cadillac Fleetwood radiator? An emergency is the only time you should consider putting water in your radiator. Outside of that, it’s recommended you use a pre-mixed coolant or a 50/50 blend of water and coolant. However, if you need to continue driving your Fleetwood when you’re out of coolant, having water in the coolant reservoir is better than nothing.
  • What can cause the engine in my Fleetwood to suddenly stop? Reasons your Fleetwood car engine may suddenly stop include engine overheating, electrical troubles, mechanical issues, ignition system problems, faulty sensors, and low fuel.
