What engines interchange with a 1998 Buick Le Sabre?

SOURCE: 92 Buick Le Sabre engine stumbling/hesitation

Have you checked fuel pressure? How about spark on all 6 cylinders? Maybe a coil?

SOURCE: the check engine light is coming on my 99 buick la sabre

Take it to a local auto parts store (Autozone, Murray's, Checkers, Napa) have them hook up a scan tool to get the diagnostic codes, write them down and post them here so we can further assist you. There are many reasons that can cause the check engine light to come on.

Headlight Removal & Installation Bulb Replacement CAUTION
Improper handling of a halogen bulb could cause the bulb to shatter into flying glass fragments due to the bulbs containing gas under pressure. Always wear eye protection, only handle the bulb by its base, keep dirt and moisture off the bulb, do not install the bulb with power at the socket, and keep them away from children.

To Remove:

1. Turn off power to the headlamps.
2. Remove the headlamp assembly.
3. Turn the bulb socket counterclockwise and remove from the headlamp assembly.
4. Remove the bulb from the socket.

1. Install the bulb into the socket.
2. Install the bulb into the headlamp assembly and turn clockwise to lock into place.
3. Install the headlamp assembly.

1. Before servicing the vehicle, refer to the precautions in the beginning of this section.
2. Open the hood.
   
3. Remove the fasteners (D) that retain the headlamp assembly (C) to the headlamp bracket (A).
4. Pull the headlamp assembly (C) forward in order to disengage the rear retaining pin (B), and disconnect the electrical connector from the forward lamp harness.
5. Remove the headlamp assembly from the vehicle. NOTE: Avoid touching the bulb or letting the bulb come in contact with anything damp. Oil from your skin or moisture on the bulb can cause the bulb to explode when the bulb is turned on. If either comes in contact with the bulb, clean the bulb with alcohol or a suitable degreaser and wipe the bulb dry.
   
6. Remove the bulbs from the headlamp assembly by turning them counterclockwise.

SOURCE: 1996 buick le sabre code P0102A stalling engine

Basically this means that there is a problem with the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor or circuit. A more technical description would be that the MAF circuit had lower than expected voltage (air flow). Other MAF sensor circuit DTC trouble codes are P0100, P0101, P0103, and P0104.

Symptoms: You will likely not notice any serious drivability problems, although there may be symptoms such as a general decrease in power or sluggishness.

Causes: A code P0102 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:
The MAF may be disconnected, or a wiring connection may be bad
The MAF may be dirty or otherwise contaminated (Note: if you use a reusable oiled air filter, be careful not to apply too much oil or that can contaminate the MAF).
The MAF sensor may be faulty
The vehicle computer may be faulty (very rare)

Possible Solutions: The simplest thing to do is to reset the code and see if it comes back. Then start with the cheapest, easiest repair procedures:
Verify that the Mass Air Flow Sensor wiring is connected properly and that there are no broken / frayed wires.
Inspect for any air leaks near the MAF sensor.
Take the MAF out and clean it using a spray cleaner such as brake cleaner or electrical contact cleaner. Be gentle with the sensor.
Check the voltage of the MAF sensor (refer to a repair manual for vehicle specific information)
Replace the MAF sensor.
