VS Berlina 1995 V6 4spd Auto...stalling issue!! :(

[daora]

I do not have all the tools, I have removed the bolt with no issues, but could not find the right puller, so I have ordered one from eBay Harmonic Balancer Steering Wheel Gear Pulley Puller 13P | eBay

what does that do?

what does that do?

It removes the Harmonic Balancer from the crank shaft (correct me if I have the name wrong), I need to remove it so I can get to the crank angle sensor (CAS)

If I am able I like to do it myself, so far I have done the Inlet manifold, fuel injectors, replaced the DIFF (IRS), replaced the trans fluid, replaced a few bushes in the front (more to be done).
Doing a service is rather easy for the most part.

If you are going fix the roof lining then do not worry about a temp fix just replace it or pay someone https://forums.justcommodores.com.au/threads/how-replace-headlining-very-detailed.47983
If you have a front loader washing machine you might be able to wash your roof lining fabric...

is it the whole roof lining or is it just the fabric that covers it?

the back near teh rear window is of the thing that holds it in place came loose its dangerous driving with the lining hanging that low in hte back

How do you test the coil packs? is it just testing the resistance across the contacts?

and the DFI module, is there a test for that. Im looking at a commy with the same issue. soon, I will checkt he fuel filter aswell.

hey in regards to my stalling issue could a faulty radiator cause it all if they checked everything elese and nothing is causing it?......coz while i was driving on sunday the temp guage climbed up to the half way mark faster than normal and once it got there engine cut out.....once i pulled over waited a bit turned the car on no prob but 5min later it cuts out again......hmmm puzzling.

Not the radiator but it is heat related, sounds like something electrical is getting hot and failing.
