I have 1990 olds cutlass cierra which body and interior are excellent shape bought for 500.00 as a second work car only needed a mufffler the garage said drove it home no prob 15 miles parked over nite drove 3 miles and car bucked speedo went from 50 to0 and back every so often wanted to stall service eng lite came on each time stalled when stoppped garage put computer on codes TBI , crank senser , QUAD ??? , water temp senser , HI LO volts and i think spark something what could be wrong new computer was installed trying to find more on what garage did it any help

 

Disconnect the battery for5 minutes. That clears the fault codes and the computer. Take it out for a 30 minute drive to your "friendly" Auto Zone store. (Actually, I think Auto Bone is worthless...except for this.) Have them scan it (for free) and see if it throws any more codes.

i never new that i set an appointment up with a different garage to check it out the original mechanic claims its the cat which i removed unblocked and ran in park still tries to shut off owner of garage says its the mass flow senser no one put it back on puter yet ok on to the next garage or auto zone if it makes it there thanks

 

And it's FREE! Just remember to do the battery deal to clear the codes there now.


I LOVE mechanics that shotgun parts...at your expense, of course! "Oh, THI$ will fix it...or maybe it is THI$...or THI$..."
