Is there anything specific that I should know when removing the engine out of a 3.8 liter V6 2002 Buick Park Avenue?, Because I'm having trouble removing the engine from the transmission housing....

SOURCE: P1404 error code

The PCM monitors the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve pintle position input to ensure that the valve responds properly to commands from the PCM. When the ignition switch is turned ON, the PCM learns the EGR learned minimum position. The PCM compares the EGR learned minimum position to the EGR position sensor when the EGR valve is commanded closed. If the EGR position sensor indicates that the EGR valve is still open when the PCM is commanding the EGR valve closed, this DTC will set.

Excess deposits on the EGR valve pintle or seat--Remove the EGR valve and check for deposits that may interfere with the EGR valve pintle extending completely or cause the pintle to stick.

Usually this will fix it but in some cases you may have to replace the egr valve.

I have same problem with my 1998. How do I find instructions for replacement of same.

there is a special tool for this job but I have cheated on this but you ned to be careful when doing this.The wishbone shaped mount on the front going from motor to front of vehicle, remove and it allows the motor to tilt.

need to take car somewhere to have the code read with a scanner,try parts stores first some will do it for free if not the dealers have them

DTC P0101-P0103, P0107, P0108, P0121-P0123, P0130-P0138, P0140, P0141, P0201-P0206, P0300, P0401-P0405, P0410, P0440-P0446, P0506, P0507, P1404 or P1441 not set, engine started, vehicle driven at less than 82 mph at 550-4000 rpm, BARO sensor over 70 kPa (10.1 psi), ECT sensor from 68-230ºF, IAT sensor from 64-158ºF, MAF sensor from 2.8-150 gm/s, MAP sensor from 16-105 kPa (2.6-15.2 psi), fuel level over 10%, and the PCM detected the Long Term fuel trim value was more than +20% for 6 seconds. The PCM controls the air/fuel metering system to good overall fuel economy, driveability, and emission control. During open loop, the PCM determines fuel delivery based on sensor signals, without the oxygen sensor input. During closed loop, the PCM adds oxygen sensor inputs to calculate Short and Long term fuel trim fuel delivery adjustments. Short Term fuel trim values change rapidly in response to changes in the oxygen sensor signals. Long Term fuel trim makes coarse adjustments in order to maintain an air/fuel ratio of 14.7:1.

Possible Causes:

• Air leaks in intake manifold, exhaust pipes or exhaust manifold
  
• Fuel control sensor is out of calibration (ECT, IAT or MAF)
  
• Low fuel pressure (fuel filter clogged, pressure regulator failure)
  
• One or more injectors restricted or pressure regulator has failed
  
• HO2S element is contaminated, deteriorated or has failed
  
• Vacuum hose is disconnected, broken, leaking or loose
