If I had to guess, it's probably electrical. Everything is controlled by the computer and sensors. It even increases the idle when you put on the heat or ac to...
Yeah, the only one small problem with that link is that they say it's for 1997 to 2003.......as long as it's just the base engine, you're fine, but the 1999...
Thanks for the info i have a 99 i would not have known that i thought it was to good to be true. It dose look like it is just a longblock so you are saying it...
I would have to disagree with you Chregan. I have used Bosch Platinum plus 4 plugs in every vehicle I have owned since Bosch started making them and in my...
Greetings ( + )!( + ) I'm not sure if the Catera uses this schema, but some automobiles used to have a two step idle position which would not let the throttle...
Chad, I took your advice on the CTS seals they do work great also. On the other issue, I will double check the cruise cable. Thanks ... === message truncated...
Hi, the bosch part number for "97 thru 2001" Catera is 4512. PLATINUM IR FUSION Do not gap. Gap is not adjustable. If you want to read more on them go here, ...

It's all in your head. A preexisting conclusion. You expect a certain result and your mind/foot perceives it. This is a common psychological condition. Your...
They is a new 3.2 engine for sale on ebay at $1499.oo in Los Angeles, Ca. I have asked them what would need to be done to install this into a 97 and he replied...
The doctor is in now I see...I was waiting for your reply, I knew you would have something more to say about the subject. I have seen the taste tests where...
Yeah I would have to agree with Jason as well - I got some Bosch Plus 4's and you could tell the difference right away. I use them in my wife's CRV as well and...
Don't worry about it, the advice is free. Of course, if I charged you for it, you'd probably give it a lot more weight. Your example supports my previous...
GOOD AFTERNOON ALL :) I HAVE RECENTLY BEGUN TO EXPERIENCE TROUBLE WITH THE DOOR HANDLE ON MY WIFE'S 97 CAT. IT STARTED WITH THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR NOT...
... That's interesting. Got any references handy that explain this theory? I always thought the heat range was matched with the combustion profile of the...
Holy shit dude, just let the guy enjoy his $7 spark plugs, and move on. If he thinks they get better performance, then have at it. If you think your $2 spark...
It's all good man, to each his own! No, I do not believe that the spark goes to all four electrodes(at the same time), the fact that it has four gives it a...
I think that these type of things are fun to discuss as long as the person responding does not fly of the handle and start cursing at someone to get his point...
Can someone tell me which light is the low beam on these Eurolights? Looks like the little round one is the low beam and the big square one is for high beam....
He said he checked the throttle cable so that tells me he has a 97-98 cat. 99-01 use fly by wire instead of a throttle cable like we are used to. The IAC...
I think we agree here. The heat range of the plug corresponds to its ability to remove heat from the cylinder. Too cold, and you don't get full combustion,...
Some time ago I disconnected the MAF which solved my high idle & surging problem on the '01 CAT. Question: Is the MAF repairable? I've seen some mention of...
I don't think the MAF is repairable. It's cleanable but very easy to break the wire inside. What are you miss fire codes? You only have two banks on the...
please help i put in the new o2sensors today that code went away after reset but the misfire codes cam back and it is still idleing rough is there something...
I will have to say it is your mass air flow sensor. ... From: robbymai <rlm1267@...> To: CateraOwners@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, November 1, 2006...
