Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 1960 Buick Invicta with a 401 325
Horsepower engine had it rebuilt 3 years ago
just started it recently and now the oil on one
side of the engine is not coming up to the
lifters help .

Do you know for sure that the oil does not go to one side or is this an assumption you made because the lifters are noisy? If it sat for a very long time perhaps the lifters got gummed up.

I have a 2005 Buick LeSabre, it ran hot one morning and i heard this clicking noise coming from the engine like the valves were'nt getting oil or something. Now when a crank it the engine runs like it has a bad plug or two and there is constant bubbling into the water reservoir while it's running. I have been told that it's a blown head gasket and am asking around too see if that's what it is or could it be something else, the constant bubbling in the water reservoir is what has got me? but anyone that could give me some suggestions on what it is would be much appreciated. 4 Answers

Air only blows out of front vents (not from bottom heater or defroster) on 2002 Buick LeSabre I am only getting air to come out of the front vents of the dash. My blower speed works fine. I can switch it from hot to cold no prob. Had one mechanic look at and he replaced the blower motor which did not fix problem but another story as I was pissed they ripped me off as it did not fix problem. Any quick fixes that I can possible do? Pep Boys said bring it in but will cost $45 diagnostic first. 7 Answers
