WEll I'm having troulbe with my 2003 Alero. It has the 3.4 v6. Well the other day it snowed and I had to go to work so I drove down the road and well i got to the road and it just started spitting and sputtering and then eventually quit and I couldn't get it started again.. I'm sure it got wet and I've heard of the Aleros doing it before. So I'm wondering if there's anything I need to do to keep it from doing this again or is there something I can do to stop it. And also my radio resets itself every time you turn the key off and on or engage the starter and then it resets the time and all the stations.

DUde that it so your max flow capaciter, They are hard to get to you have to pull your whole engine out and relocate the wheels to the top of the car.
LOL just playin---but that is 99.9% for sure your fuel pump, I have the 3.4 v6 also and mine did the same thing got my cousin to switch out the fuel pump and had no prolems since.

Well I think I figured it out. My fuse box in the engine compartment is broke on the bottom and the side has a huge piece missing in it so I think that is what is causing it to go nuts when it gets went. So, can I just get the box that goes around the wiring harnesses or do I have to get the whole box along with all the wiring harnesses?
