It's a 7/32, and you'll need a ratchet or wrench for it.

No. The most common problem with the low sensor light is the switch which is located in the radiator just below the filler neck. First make sure that the radiator is full. With the cap off, start the engine and then add coolant to the radiator. There are two bleed valves in the system. One by the thermostat area and the other by the by-pass hose close to the water pump. Be sure all the air is out of the system. The low coolant sensor gets dirty and causes this problem.

Believe it or not this is quite common on older cars.

Newer cars have systems in place to pressurise the tank as and when needed and release pressure when needed etc, however, older cars don’t have this luxury.

However, if your smelling fuel along with it, I would highly recommend you replace the fuel cap itself, as this should have a rubber seal round it and it sounds like it may have perished. This could also explain the louder thank usual whistle.

I know what the problem is. like my 93 chevry it came disconnected at the handle next to the drivers seat.

if you can check for spark when it wont start and fuel pressure and the service port , would be great information , otherwise pattern failure is ignition module and crank sensor (replace them as a set) , after cools off it will run again.

Check the ends of the battery cable hooking to the starter and make sure it is clean also make sure the battery cable is clean inside and tight to the battery. If that is ok then change the battery cable to the starter, the positive cable. Make sure before you change the cable that the solenoid for the starter is ok, because if you can short the post out then you are getting power to the starter and the solenoid may be shorting out.

Any codes?

Almost always it's the crank sensor on a 3.8.They fail so often,I recommend changing the crank sensor at every tune up. Otherwise the 3.8 is a great engine.
