New to Buick and this Forum, some help please..

[88PA]

Hi all, I know this is an old thread but I wanted to see this thread to conclusion if that's ok. It's all about learning these beasts isn't it?

I haven't followed up on this till now since (if you have read the entire thread) my sweet mother of 77 years after a long battle finally succumbed to the forces of nature and went to be with the Lord.

So, I do have an update about this can sensor prob. I went and purchased a new sensor magnet, brake cleaner and JB weld but haven't put it in yet since it's been so cold. I was however forced to put all new plugs in, fuel filter and one fuel injector. It now idles a lot smoother but there is still a little jerk from time to time which I think is the lack of cam sensor.

I will post here when I get the sensor magnet put in and let you all know if it fixed the idle and made the code 41 go away. I have a few jobs ahead of this right now so it will be a few weeks.

Take care

For what it's worth, my '87 drove me nuts trying to get a constantly smooth idle out of it, never did, only when it wanted to.
