Please forgive me, but...
I can't remember, been gone too long.
I have an '88 Olds Delta 88 with a 3800. On the '88'*, can you do the jumper trick to pull the codes like you can on the '93'*?
What'* happening is it idles beautifully, but as soon as I throttle it a bit, it dies if I don't pump the throttle. It has thrown a code, but I need to see what the numbers are.
Thanks.

I believe that you should be able to do that with that car....Check out Tech Info for more information on it. Should be the same as flashing codes out of a OBD1 Bonneville.

If I have to do anything with the cam sensor, may as well take a few more steps and replace the timing chain and check the sprocket, instead of the quickfix negating the need to remove the cover.
Anywho, I'll let ya know.
