94 buick lesabre changed the ignition coils, wires, plugs fuel filter, had a new converter put on, old one stolen, replaced ECM. it starts up fine runs for awhile then misses like crazy with the muffler popping and a little back firing. the car sat for about 8 months prior, changed all these parts out and still the same thing. sometimes after driving for awhile it no starts then after sitting it fires up, valves rattle like crazy then that goes away then sometimes it shakes and sputters then drives fine for a couple of miles then does it all over again. had wires and coils checked they are correct

SOURCE: 1992 buick lesabre starts fine.

You check the coils with a ohm meter. They should 6-8 thousand ohms at the spark plug connections. One lead to one spark plug connection and the other lead to the other . It's not likely a coil for stalling. If coil , Your car can still run on four cylinders. It can be a ignition module. It fails when it gets extremely hot. The module is located under the coils.

Its probably a vacuum line problem or EVAP or possibly the Mass Air Flow Sensor. Make sure that is hooked up as well. Examine all lines to see if there is a rip or tear or anything loose

Try some Lucas fuel treatment,with a less fuel as possible so it can work better,it will be stronger,it will clean the injectors,and it will help if carbon is on the valves,it will burn it off the valves.Also check the fuel pump pressure.

Remave the battery cables from the battery and clean the connections and replace bolts. Have seen this before.

I have a 95 Buick LeSabre that won't start, turns over really strong but won't start up. I have checked the fuel pump, changed my fuel filter and replaced all my ignition coils,still nothing. I also...

The proper way to find the problem would be to pull a plug wire an see if it has spark or hook up a fuel pressure gauge an see if it has fuel pressure . Don't guess an just replace parts if you don't know how to test correctly .

I have a 94 Buick Park Avenue that won't start, not even try.turns over well, battery good, new ECM, doesn't seem like it's firing. Please help. Any suggestions?

Put a spark tester on the plug wire and see if you are getting fire to the plugs. Check to see if the fuel pump is running when you turn the key on. Check the fuel filter from the fuel pump to make sure it is not plugged. You can put a small amount of fuel in the throttle body by spraying it in and see if it starts. Check the catalytic converter to see if it is plugged.

I have a buick lesabre and it just quit running I have changed the fuel pump fuel filter spark plugs and wires and had the coil pack tested and they are good and the car will turn over but not start

didnt specify vehicle --generic answer --why did you change all those parts were they all bad ---square one check fuses and relays try to start with ether /starter fluid if starts fuel problem retest pump new doesn't mean free from defects also test relay and wire harness --if no start possible ignition switch wiring retest coils and plugs for spark ----with another person have them try to start vehicle while you feel back of exhaust if feels and sounds clogged possible bad catalytic converter---test and check egr valve possible carbon build up

This could be a bad ground on the ECM. When it is in park it is open loop. When you put it in gear, the ecm goes closed loop with the oxygen sensors and with no ground it dies.

Can't find fuel schrader valve on a 94 Buick Century

You could check pressure and flow at the fuel filter.If the exhaust is VERY quiet it could be a plugged catalytic converter.

Best to do a fuel pressure test, pump might be weak and dosent show up until it gets gets warm. Best to do the test after it quits again when pump is at its hottest. If you havent done it yet chg. fuel filter too.
