My '96 Buick Regal shut off while sitting in drive thru at fastfood joint. My husband pushed it over to parking space and waited a couple minutes before trying to crank it and it started right back up. Then next day was driving down the road car shut off again. Pulled over to side of the road and waited about 5 - 10 mins and it started back up...what is going on?

check local auto parts store for special tool, does not cost much and easier to use than pliers

You should be able to pick up a used one at a junkyard for less than $20

I found the problem. It was the crank position sensor. There was also a cracked vacuum hose connecting to the diaphragm on the fuel rail. Replaced both and my 92 Buick no longer dies. For the guy who's Buick was dying when using the turn signals - replace the crank position sensor. One of my symptoms of my Buick dying was when I used my turn signals. Use of turn signals places a varying load on the electrical system which messes up the crank posistion sensor if it is going bad.

The studs are pressed into place. You can remove them and replace them using a vise, and a couple sockets (one larger, and one smaller). You do need to remove the "wheel hub" from the vehicle to perform the repair.

if it has a lock on it thin you need a key but a Flathead should just fit in there to pop it off
