    95 Buick - How to Disable Auto Choke?

    I have a '95 Buick Lesabre 3.8 that I am trying to figure out. After
    starting, tt runs great for one minute, and then it stutters upon
    acceleration once it warms up a very short time. I replaced the fuel
    filter. I am not sure about the fuel pump yet.

    Does anyone know how to disable the automatic choke to try to eliminate that
    one thing?

    Thanks for any tips!

    - Daniel

    Well, there's no choke on anything made in the last 15 years or so..

    Perhaps putting a scanner on it might shed some light. It sounds
    feasible that you are dealing with a fault only "visible" after entering
    closed loop engine control. (ie., oxygen sensor comes to mind as one
    possibility.) Or it could be caused by something as simple as a dirty
    air filter or crud in the injectors...

    The IAC will regulate idle speed via bypass air volume; the extra cold
    start fuel, as would be provided by a carb's choke, will be programmed
    into the PCM's map (as we would be in open loop) as a particular injector
    pulsewidth, presumably corresponding primarily to ECT inputs.

    As pointed out, there is no autochoke.
    Do the usual: clean, inspect, test:
    MAF
    MAT
    IAC
    TPS
    EGR
    O2 sensors
    throttle body flapper
    air intake hose after MAF
