Hi! My name's Joey, and yesterday, after parking, my 1995 chevy lumina would'nt start. after listening to the problem (when key turned over, the engine made a squeaking sound), my dad said that the engine was locked up. is there any way of fixing this?
Answer -
JOEY ;
HI ; WELL WHEN YOU SAY LOCKED UP - IS IT SEASED DUE TO NO OIL ?
AND IF YES - THAN YOU WOULD HAVE TO RE-BUILD IT.
or if differnt get back to me ok
Joey ;
HI well as far as the motor , you can find a bunch of places on the web. that sell them also larger ones. the price range for a motor is about 1,500.00 and up plus labor. you can get a turn key motor - ready to go . try a serch with .(rebuilt chevy motors)you might find a place close to you.
