2002 Chevrolet Express 1500 Engine Q&A

  • Why does my Express 1500’s check engine light come on when I start it? It's okay if your check engine light comes on when you first start your vehicle. This is just your Express 1500 testing its circuits. The dash light shouldn't stay on. If it does, you might want to bring your vehicle in for service.
  • Are Chevrolet Express 1500 engine noises bad? Strange engine sounds can be a sign something’s off in your Chevrolet Express 1500. Tapping or knocking could mean you're low on oil. Whistling could mean a belt is misaligned or there's an intake leak. Squealing may be caused by a loose fan belt, and grinding might be a sign of brake problems rather than engine issues.
  • What could damage my Chevrolet Express 1500 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 slamming the gas pedal while the engine is still cold. Protect your engine’s performance and efficiency by distancing yourself from these habits.
  • Can I use water in my Chevrolet Express 1500 radiator? While it’s not recommended, you can use water in your Express 1500 radiator in emergencies. Normally, you should only use a 50/50 mix of coolant and water or a pre-mixed coolant. However, if you are completely out of coolant and must continue driving, it’s better to have water in your coolant reservoir than nothing.
  • Why did my Express 1500 engine suddenly stop? Your Express 1500 car engine could stop suddenly due to low fuel, electrical issues, overheating, a faulty ignition system, mechanical troubles, or sensor problems.
