Questions About 1987 Oldsmobile Firenza Engines

  • Why does my Firenza’s check engine light come on when I start it? It’s usually normal for your check engine light to turn on upon ignition. It’s just your Firenza firing up its circuits. The light should go off shortly. Bring your vehicle in if it doesn't.
  • Why is my Oldsmobile Firenza making engine noise? Unusual noises can signal a problem with your Oldsmobile Firenza engine. Knocking or tapping could be a symptom of low 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 might be a sign of brake problems rather than engine issues.
  • What could damage my Oldsmobile Firenza engine? Some driving habits are not so great for your engine. These include driving on a near-empty gas tank, revving the engine while still 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 Oldsmobile Firenza 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 Firenza when you’re out of coolant, having water in the coolant reservoir is better than nothing.
  • Why did my Firenza engine suddenly stop? Reasons your Firenza car engine may suddenly stop include engine overheating, electrical troubles, mechanical issues, ignition system problems, faulty sensors, and low fuel.
