Asked by Marina Apr 16, 2016 at 03:13 PM about the 1999 Oldsmobile Eighty-Eight

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 1999 Oldsmobile 88 with a v6 3800
engine. I went to start it & it clicks the lights come
on but it doesn't start. I'm wondering what it could
be. Could the solenoid need cleaned? Or is the
starter? I'm not good with cars. I took it to O'Reilly
awhile ago n the guy said it was somerhing that
needed cleaned out.

That would be the first thing to try remove and clean battery terminals you may need a jump to get the vehicle going.

I have a 1999 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight and it has been acting real sluggish like it doesn't want to go it does fine on the highway but when you stop at a light or stop sign and then go it acts like it doesn't want to go. The spark plugs were changed in it and then it wouldn't start then we got a new battery and it started up then died and nothing works no lights anything. Does anyone know what could be the problem and how we could get it checked out with it not running? 2 Answers
