I have a 1995 Buick Regal custom 3100 eng. The car almost stalled when I came to a stop at a red light. Then about 5 min later the car shut completely off . It wouldn't restart. I have replaced the fuel filter, egr valve and map sensor. The car restarts after sitting a while but runs very rough. It sound like it doesn't have oil even though it does. The eng oil light stays on. I am at loss as what to do next

You may have oil in the pan but that does not mean you have oil to the lifters, rods, etc. It sounds as if the oil pump has gone bad and not enough pressure to keep the lifters filled. To try an easy solution, change the oil filter. There have been occasions where the filter plugged up, there is a bypass to let oil through, but it is not the same as a good filter. If the pump is good it will fill the new filter in 30 seconds or so.

SOURCE: 1988 buick regal stalls and restarts stalls and restarts

Sounds like a relay or coil failing.
To proceed you would need to find out if you are loosing spark to the plugs or fuel pressure to the injectors when it won't start.

SOURCE: 1990 Buick Regal 3.1 has rough idle, hesitates and dies when accelerating.

A lot of new parts! Have a compression test done to gauge the engine's internal condition, and go from there. If compression is good on all 6 cylinders, scan for trouble codes. The compression test may find your problem, something like an exhaust valve burned or not seating properly.

Have a 1995 Buick Regal. Car stalls when braking at a stop sign or braking into a left or right turn.RPMs drop to 500 then stalls without warning.Car starts right up with no problem and runs great.

Do you hear a sucking noise from under the hood when you apply the brakes? You could have a bad brake booster venting too much engine vacuum when applying the brakes causing the engine to die.

My 1994 buick regal gran sport jumps a lot when at a stop sign or red light, but when i accelerate the problem goes away. also when in park my RPM's drops extremely low and it sounds as if its goi

This problem is commonly caused by a dirty automatic idle speed control valve and throttle valve. Buy a can of throttle valve cleaner (do not use carburetor spray cleaner!) from NAPA or Carquest (made by CRC chemicals) and spray it into the air intake while the engine is running, use up about 1/2 the can, engine will try to stall hold the speed up, shut it down and let it soak for 30 minutes, restart and blow out the remaining fluid, shut it down and disconnect the negative battery cable for 5 Min's to reset the base idle control

1995 buick lesabre shuts off while driving,engine runs smooth and then shuts off,,it restarts without a problem,,,,what could be causing this. i have checked my battery connections and they are fine.

Plugged fuel filter. There are two - one in the tank and one in the fuel line. Probably the one in the fuel line so change that one first.

Car Dies

My car idled OK but not great and used to die during stops at times. I replaced the spark plugs and wires without a difference. Shortly after the car died with very little power, just enough to limp home. I had a shop fix it so I didn't guess what was wrong. They replaced the Ignition Module and some of the Coil Packs. They had to replace the Spark Plugs I just put in due to fouling. If you are smelling gas you are putting your cat at risk and might have a more expensive problem later. It cost me $500 but it runs better than ever.
