The car usually wont stall if you warm it up before driving it. If it does, you have to wait about 5 minutes before restarting it. A while back she said that someone told her to warm it up because that will trick the computer. Does that make sense? Any idea what is going on? I have found some indication this may be a common Buick problem. So far nobody has been able to figure it out.

It is almost definitely the fuel pump relay. They act lazy in cold temps. If not that get the fuel pump pressure checked. The pump may be going out. The only other thing that may cause this is a bad crank sensor. The computer should bring that code up, even if the light is not on. It happened to me last year with no code and it turned out to be a bad crank sensor. Start with the cheap stuff like the relay first. Good Luck

in the beginning gas is further to the air it incredibly is measured entering the engine. there's an instant connection between the incoming air and the quantity of gas it incredibly is further. no be counted if a carburetor or injected engine if appropriate set up that's going to attempt to function the correct quantity quantity of gas to maintain a 14.7 to a million ratio between the air and the gas. this could variety in accordance to load/call for on the engine. Any time this ratio won't be in a position to be maintained that's going to reason driveability matters. The IAC on an injected engine in basic terms makes minor ameliorations to the incoming air to maintain a persevering with predetermined idle velocity, the air/gas mixture is in simple terms controlled by employing the ECM and the gas transport equipment. additionally putting spark plugs in that weren't OEM ought to reason problems because of the fact the ECM has been programmed with resistance values which tournament the OEM plugs. Platinum and iridium plugs final lots longer than usual plugs yet burning greater gas greater effectively feels like a television advertisement. The undesirable guy had a topic and others are nonetheless analyzing those posts searching for an sensible answer. An IAC in basic terms impacts an engine for the period of idle circumstances no longer cruising at 70 mph. in the beginning it's going to be desperate what's occurring to reason it to stall. The gas stress, the spark and the injector pulse could desire to be monitored on the time of the stall. From there you're able to do the diagnoses looking on which between the three is failing. My journey on those fashions/years has shown the spark to fail from a defective ignition module, injector pulse to drop out from one defective gas injector, or the spark and injector pulse fail from a defective CKP/ crankshaft place sensor.

Just warm that baby up. I believe you already have the solution. If you have to leave in a rush on a cold day, take the Porsche.
