buick stalling
I have an 89 with the 4 cylinder engine. When its cold, on a cold start, my car will start really slow and rough. It will run but it sputters a little bit. Like its missing. There is a lack of power. If you go ahead and drive it runs like that for about 20 seconds and then the power returns and it drives just fine. Any thoughts?

Re: buick stalling
2.5? Any codes? Last tuneup(with wires)? Check coil output?

Jump a and b terminals on the diagnostic link under the dash, then count the flashes.
