Lost and forgotten at the auction for five years

How long do cars sit at the auction? On average about two months, but this 2004 Pontiac Grand Am GT is far beyond average. It was sitting at the auction for a month shy of five years. Had the auction not been moving locations, it would have likely sat even longer. It was not wrecked, has a clear title and doesn't run. Let's see if we can figure out the history and get it running again.

Makes me feel old that an 04 Grand Am is 19 years old now. Nothing against the cars, but considering the age and that it's worth salvaging is even more interesting. 19 years ago, a 19 year old car was either expensive or rotted to pieces or beat beyond being worth salvaging. Still no complaints about you fixing more Grand Ams. You working on these things is like me working on certain Fords. We know the tricks, pitfalls, etc. and can roll through them quickly and easily and we both have a stockpile of parts everyone else threw away years ago to fix them.

Reminds me of my in-laws Pontiac Torrent that "mysteriously" started having overheating issues at just under 100,000 miles and was losing oil between changes. The Brain Trust in the Service Department at the local Pontiac Dealer acted like they couldn't figure out the issue and did things like changing the thermostat and flushing the cooling system. (Like this 3400 wasn't like every 3400 ever made and wasn't suffering from a head gasket issue.)

@A-classic-smithy 8 ай бұрын

The water pumps were quite prone to failure, but the testing for failing head gasket is extremely fast, pressurize your overflow cap, cap off the overflow line, open the oil fill, if air is heard or pressure drops then you are the proud owner of an oil and coolant exchanger 😂. 99 percent of the time too you can smell oil in the overflow and see it in the coolant. Gm was sued several times over this with the 3000 series engines. Always get a 3800, always.

It tweaked the unibody bad enough that the rear doors wouldn't open. I took an 8ft pry bar and pushed all the metal off of the rear wheels so I could drive it home. I thought I was going to take the engine and throw it into a project, but instead I managed to sell it for $900, after getting paid by the insurance for it being totaled. It still had good interior and the entire front end was still in great shape/ engine/ trans, etc.. They got a good deal on a parts car.

So this video popped up on my recommended videos. I was really surprised to find someone working on a 3400 Grand AM. I always felt like nobody did major repairs on Grand AM's and that anything like that would land one in the junk yard. I really like that you are willing to fix these as i always liked the cars myself. I don't really have a high opinion of the 3400. I was under the impression that it was more likely to crack a head than blow a gasket. I tell people that it can be a reliable high mileage motor but you don't want to ever let it overheat or try to limp it somewhere on low coolant. Replace the hoses and radiator periodically because any failures can cause engine damage fast- check the coolant level often. What is your opinion of the 3400? I went through the junkyard once looking for a 3400 and found that most of the coolant bottles smelled like combustion gasses. On the flip side, 3800's are pretty rock solid and seem to out run the transmissions more often. Thanks for fixing this car and making a video out of it!

nice "rebuild" Scott. Love your vids on what you do to get these vehicles back on the road in respectable shape.

I REALLY wish that the Grand AM had the "key hole" to unlock the shifter like the Alero! GOOD work. I had to pull the fuel tank out of MY GA to replace the fuel pump. Unfortunately, I had just filled the tank the day before the damn pump died!

Hi Scott. Great build. Thank you. Have a good weekend.

I can see why you like working on these. Seems like the interior and parts go together easily. Once you get a critical mass of spares fixing them up must be less time consuming than some other models!

And GM is basically plug and play across the whole family of makes they have.

I just want to personally thank you for this video specifically but also all the others that you make. Definitely helps us diy'ers to be brave enough to jump into some fixes that we might not have otherwise taken on. With this video, my brother and I were able to replace his 2001 Grand Am GT rear window regulator for < $50 doing it ourselves. He had the other side done at Midas about 7 years ago and it cost him nearly $800. He bought his 2001 in 2006 with roughly 40K miles on it. He's got just over 100K miles on it now and its still going strong.
