about my 1988 buick lesabre, as it turns out i solved the stalling problem by simply changing, oil pressure mod.@a cost of 12.00 bucks. of all the years working on vehicles, i learned that you always try to solve the problem, with the most inexpensive parts available. even though, this problem cost me over 800 bucks! the only upside is my buick is very mech. sound now. so, in closing if any other shadetree mech. out there are in need of any mech. problems concerning GM products, i consider myself somewhat of being an expert, in trouble shooting problems. even though it has cost me a small fortune. ha!ha!, but your never to old to learn, and lord knows, i'm living proof! thank you for response, and if i can help with any problems, others may have feel free to ask. sincerly dan.

sirs, my 88 buick is in good cond. i have changed, all relays, fuel pump, throttle body gasket, all vacuum lines. everything described in the trouble shooting section of my manual, but it keeps stalling. it will crank up run a few minutes, die again. i have double checked all elec. connections, new plugs, wires. but nothing seems to work thus far. the auto is worth repair. i have six vehicles, and have always done my own repairs, for the simple fact, the mech. where i live are ripoffs! i will continue to troubleshoot the problem, but this has really got me at wits end. any feedback will be appreciated. thank you for any time involed on your part. sincerly, dan
