Cadillac Seville 99 servise fuel systm?

A 1999 Cadillac Seville's fuel system service will depend on the specific issue you're experiencing. There's no single "service" for a fuel system. Troubleshooting needs to be done first.

To help you, I need more information. What's wrong? Are you experiencing:

* Poor performance? (Hesitation, rough running, lack of power)

* No start?

* Check Engine Light illuminated? (What is the code?)

* Fuel leak? (Where is it leaking from?)

* Unusual fuel consumption?

* Fuel pump problems? (Whining noise, inconsistent fuel delivery)

Once you provide more details on the symptoms, I can give you more specific advice on what might need servicing, which could include:

* Fuel filter replacement: This is a routine maintenance item and should be done periodically (consult your owner's manual for recommended intervals).

* Fuel pump inspection/replacement: If the pump is failing, it might need replacement.

* Fuel injectors cleaning or replacement: Dirty injectors can cause poor performance.

* Fuel pressure regulator check: This component regulates fuel pressure in the system.

* Fuel lines inspection: Look for leaks, cracks, or damage.

* Evaporative emission system (EVAP) check: This system prevents fuel vapor from escaping into the atmosphere; malfunctions can trigger a check engine light.

* Scanning for diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs): A code reader is necessary to get the trouble codes from the car's computer, providing more insight into the problem.

Before attempting any fuel system work yourself: Remember that working with fuel is dangerous. Gasoline is flammable and its vapors are explosive. If you are not comfortable working on your car's fuel system, take it to a qualified mechanic. Improper handling can lead to injury or fire.
