Re: Mono spring????

Regretfully, they are a dealer only part. I don't know of an aftermarket company that makes a reproduction version. Have you checked e-bay and such?

Try www.wilbertsgmparts.com I looked one up and they show having it. It's not in your area, but they will ship. Give them a call.

No problem, Give these guys a call, they are a class act salvage yard that specialize in Buick and GM parts. If they don't have it they can usually find what you need for you.

Re: Mono spring????

First of I would check for flash codes. Check www.troublcodes.net for information. Also many times these stalling issues can be solved by removing the throttle body, removing the sensors and cleaning it good with throttle body cleaner. Make sure the passages are clear. Vacuum lines are also a major cause of stalling. Check and clean EGR valve if applicable and the IAC valve seat and plunger.

Re: Mono spring????

new iac, icm, o2, fuel filter, fuel pump, plugs-wires, thermostat, coolant change, air filter, cleaned MAF sensor, most vacum tubes/hoses, new computer did nothing so i returned it, last code i got was 17 (some sort of rpm crank signal count problem)?? sounds like crank sensor to me.
