#1: 19969 Buick PA Ultra-Super charged 3.8: Is it possible to pull codes off of this with a paper clip. I heard 1996's could either have type 1 or type 2's

#2: What can cause my oil pressure gauge to spike under acceleration?

Thank you

Thanks for pointing that out Tech II lol. I always make that mistake

1996 is OBD II, you have a 16 pin ALDL connector......no flash capability....need code reader or scan tool...

Usually a bad oil sender....only way to confirm is with an external oil pressure gage.......

By the way, you have supercharger, not a turbo....
