rolydel Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 I have a 96 DeVille. It always starts easily when cold. Lately it doesn't always start easily when hot. It will start but I have to give it gas. Also, I have had an odd gas spillage overnight around the engine area. Not a lot but enough to stink up the garage. Suggestions?

Cadillac Jim Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 Sounds like a FPR leak or possibly an injector leak. Get the codes and post them here; the codes will likely tell the tale. -- Click Here for CaddyInfo page on "How To" Read Your OBD Codes-- Click Here for my personal page to download my OBD code list as an Excel file, plus other Cadillac data -- See my CaddyInfo car blogs: 2011 CTS-V, 1997 ETC Yes, I was Jims_97_ETC before I changed cars.

ted tcb Posted July 26, 2006 Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 I agree with Jim. My symptoms were terriffic cold starts, terrible hot starts. I had to blip the gas pedal for hot starts, almost like a carburated engine. FPR fixed the problem. 1989 FWD Fleetwood, Silver 1995 STS Crimson Pearl on Black leather 1997 STS Diamond White 1999 STS Crimson Pearl 2001 STS Silver 2003 STS, Crimson Pearl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BodybyFisher Posted July 26, 2006 Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 If you continue having that gas 'spillage', I would not park in the garage until you find the source Pre-1995 - DTC codes OBD1 >> 1996 and newer - DTC codes OBD2 >> https://www.obd-codes.com/trouble_codes/gm/obd_codes.htm How to check for codes Caddyinfo How To Technical Archive >> http://www.caddyinfo.com/wordpress/cadillac-how-to-faq/ Cadillac History & Specifications Year by Year http://www.motorera.com/cadillac/index.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranger Posted July 27, 2006 Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 B2560 - RKE Message Validation Error "PCM?" is asking if you want to enter the PCM mode. High fan = yes, low fan = no. To clear the DTC's, answer yes, then answer no to the next promts til you see "CLEAR PCM CODES". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winterset Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 Did you get your fuel rail recall done yet? If you have a black pvc fuel rail, take it to the dealer to have the free stainless rail installed. I thought of this because I heard of a few FPR failures after the recall work, although not sure why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
