How much horse power is in a Chevrolet Tracker?

It depends on the engine. The older trackers had a 1.6L 4 cyl that had 95hp. I have a repair manual that states that some had a 1.8L 4 cyl, but they are apparently very rare and I don't know the ratings. The most common engine is the 2.0L 4 cyl which has 127 hp @ 6000 rpm and 134 lb-ft of torque @ 3000 rpm. Lastly in the 1999 and newer models there is the 2.5L V6 which has 155 hp.

Can having the VIN be the key to the ignition?

the VIN is a long alphanumeric sequence that is stamped into the engine compartment either on an inner wing or the bulkhead. it will also be in one of the front footwells under the carpet and probably on a metal tag inside the windshield. The manufacturer should use that to determine what the original key was

How many quarts of oil in a Chevrolet tracker?

Rule of Thumb is usually 4 quarts for 4 cylinders

(add a quart when you change the filter)

The 1.6L engine takes 4 total with filter change. Do not over fill.

How do you adjust the wiper arm on a 1991 Montero This is in regards to the position of the blade on the windshield?

The wiper arm should have a removable cap at the lowest pivot point where the arm meets the firewall/hood level. With the cap removed there should be a 10-12mm nut exposed that requires loosening and removal to slip the arm off the grooved spindle and re-mount to the readjusted/desired coverage area. Re-tightened once adjusted to to avoid slippage while in operation.

How do you program a remote key for a 2000 Chevy Tracker after battery replacement?

Resynchronize it by holding down both the lock & unlock buttons at same time for at least 7 seconds. Doors should lock & unlock once to confirm that resynchronization worked.

The drivers seat in your 1991 wont pull forward?

The most common cause of this problem is this: The handle that you pull on to move the seat usually has a couple of small wires attached to it that go to the "Locks" on the rails under your seat. One or both of these may be broken. The other not so common cause is that the rails under your seat have become bent or rusted from moisture. The only real fix for this is to pull out your seat and replace it, or on some seats you can pull off the whole sliding assembly from your existing seat, and get a new seat from a scrap yard out of the same model and year vehicle and pull the slider assembly off of it, and re-attach it to your seat.

On a 2000 Chevy tracker with a two piece drive shaft can you replace just the carrier bearing without the entire drive shaft assembly?

I have a 98 4dr trackertwo wheel dr. autotrans with a two part shaft with center support assembly consisting of cv joint and rubber vibration dampner with spline. This shaft is approx $1000.00 from dealer. Apparently instead of rebuilding, a straight shaft is offerd for a fraction of the cost. however I was told this may stress the drie train (trans/differintial?).or cause vibration posibly from engin harmonics? Check with Rockauto.com for shaft and have picture emailed. personally. Id rather spend $250.00 for a straight one and take my chances. I also need to ask myself why do they (CARDONE) make the stright shaft if it dozent work. Who do I ask if it does work> The shaft this guys mentions is a front shaft, not the 2 piece shaft that is required. They do not make a straight shaft. Junkyard or new is the only way to get what you need. For a 4dr 4x2 automatic.

What might cause a 2000 Chevrolet Tracker to overheat?

I had a 99 tracker that over heated, it was the water pump

New to this forum. I needed to expand on my question of what causes my Tracker to overheat. I have recently replaced the radiator cap and thermostat. This vehicle has about 60,000 miles and I bought it used at 50,000. It seemed well taken care of and I've had no problems till this.

Since the weather has turned chilly this thing overheats. It pushes the coolant in to the overflow bottle and overheats. I have noticed no pattern to when this happens, I can't predict with any certainty if driving conditions are causing overheating. I've been getting by till now by pouring the contents of the bottle back in the radiator. Sometimes this will get me by for a day or two, or I might only be able to go 20 miles and it overheats again. I do not detect a leak at the water pump. The inside of the radiator looks clean, what I can see I do not detect any scale or sludge.

Does anyone have any ideas? If more information is needed let me know.

Answer

1 Water pump drivebelt defective or not adjusted properly ? 2 Radiator core blocked or radiator grille dirty and restricted ? 3 Fan blades broken or cracked ?

Hi im not sure if this applies to you or not but im thinking belt slipping @ water pump or some pumps have plastic fins on the inside if they were worn or broken you would be getting very little circulation through the system.

Have you checked to see if the cooling fan clutch is still functing properly?

I actually had a very similar problem with the Tracker I bought just over a year ago. My temperature gauge would climb, but not quite enter the red zone; it would stabilize for a while then drop back to normal. I tried 2 thermostats, the serpentine belt, and a new water pump; but the problem just got worse, the gauge would go up faster and get closer to the red zone. I finally took it to the shop, and the tested for exhaust gases in the cooling system; it had a leaky head gasket. I had the head gasket replaced, and haven't had any problems with the temperature since.

The lights are on all the time tracker?

Your problem is most likely being caused by your daytime running lamp sensor. It's located on top of your dashboard near the windshield on the passenger side. Try disconnecting the sensor. A little more info might help narrow the problem, like , do you bright lights work when you push the turn signal lever forward, or do they only work when you pull it back, in it's temporary brights position? If this is the case, you can rest now. Don't let anyone tell you to replace the assembly on the steering column. That's a cool $200.00 bucks for a brand new part that isn't going tofixthe problem. Of course you should check all fuses that are related to high and low beams. Hope this helps you out.

How do you replace the drive belt on a 1995 Monte Carlo?

If you mean the serpentine belt that runs the pulleys on the front of the car, there is a tensioner pulley that you can turn with a wrench to release the tension. Make sure you remember the routing of the belt so you can put the new belt on the same way.
