1993 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera SL 4dr Sedan
i bought this car thinking it was a gem, some of my family members had the same vehicle and it lasted a long time. i found one with a little rust and only 75k and snatched it up for 2500. 2 months afterwards it started idling really rough, eventually sputtering and stalling. mechanics said it was a mass airflow sensor. i replaced it and it ran fine for 4 days, then the same issue came … back. it sounds like the idle bounces, and it has a whine in it. usually i call it a "death rattle" but i know this car has a lot of life left in it. any suggestions on what to look for as a far as repairs?

1994 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera S 4dr Sedan
I live in central NY. This is a GREAT
car for any one, Its quick with a V6
3100 engine, goes thrugh snow great
with snow tires, and will start when
its -20F degrees(It starts slow at -20
but it starts) it has some minor rocker
nois from the valve train and thats it.
Soon after i purchased the car the EGR
valve went but it was under warenty. it
has minor rust in usual … spots, nothing
major. The man that owned the car befor
me was about 80 years old and i am 18
and i love the car as much as he did!

My 93 Olds Covered Wagon
John Peterson, 02/10/2005
1993 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera S Cruiser 4dr Wagon
Was reluctant to buy from private party with 144,000 miles on it, however, this wagon was one owner, like new condition including upholstery, mats and exterior body and paint, garage kept, owner had all service records showing reg. oil changes every 3,000 miles and driven by a female shool teacher whose husband was an auto enthusiast. Asking price 8/2004 was $2,500, but I offered and … paid $2,000. I drove it on a 3000 mile trip on mostly Interstate highways with only gasoline expense at an average of 25 mpg, with cruise control set around 75 mph. Oil and fluid levels were all full to start, and remained nearly full at the end of the trip, showed no leaks. Quick response accelerator & brakes.
