Car Forum / Oldsmobile Cars / April 200598 olds Intrigue skips during heavy exceleration then smooths out
My 98 olds Intrigue w/3800 V6 seems to run fine till I climb a hill or pass on the highway really pressing on the gas. The car looses power as it seems to cut out or miss fire under this kind of strain. ease up on the gas and it smooths out again.replaced the wires and a mechanic said it was the coil pack and replaced it .Well the problem is still here and would like any advise available. Thanks How about your spark plugs? > My 98 olds Intrigue w/3800 V6 seems to run fine till I climb a hill or pass > on the highway really pressing on the gas.

Thanks I would think that it is your plugs since it is misfiring. If not, I had a similiar problem with my 96 Monte and I had to have my 02 sensors replaced and the mass air flow sensor. Quite expensive... Replaced all spark plugs. problem solved. plugs were good for 100K. not much left to them. thanks to all! I have a '95 Buick LeSabre with the same engine. I encountered the same thing you are having trouble with. I had a tuneup, spark plug wiring, and still had the same problem. This car has 95,000 miles on it. A mechanic noticed the transmission fluid was very dirty. The fluid and filter was changed. Afterwards I noticed the misfiring(or whatever it is)was gone. Hope this helps! My 1998 Olds "88" did the same thing. Ended up having the transmission rebuilt because it was slippping. And there was a miss in #4 cylinder, and one of the coils was replaced.

Just out of curiosity did you see any physical signs of distress on the old coil? How did you determine that it was failed? |
