I swear, equally as much as I love listening to the thorough explanations of things and appreciate your desire to really fix things the right way, I also really love that you do extra little things like the way your secured that man's heat shield. Totally didn't have to do that and many mechanics wouldn't have, but that's part of what makes you so different. You clearly have a passion for keeping people in good shape when they hit the road. It matters to you. That's freaking awesome.

[@richardcline1337]

I used to own a 2004 Buick LeSabre with the 3.8 engine. One of the GREATEST cars I have ever owned. It did give me a "wake up call" one day when the Check Engine Light came on. Dealer was too busy to test the cat but as I was headed back to the house OnStar called me on the car's system and told me to pull over and tighten the gas cap! I did and by the time I needed fuel again the light had shut off. I NEVER had one issue with that car outside of normal maintenance and a new battery. The only reason I sold that car was the fact that I was retiring, had a new Ford Ranger pickup, and could not justify both vehicles since I am a widower. I live out in the county so the truck just made more sense to keep. Every time I see one of those cars on the road I think about that old Buick. About the ONLY thing GM has gotten right in the last three or four decades!

[@matttradie1341]

So, my parents bought a VN Holden commodore in 1989, which had that same engine. Indestructible. 700 thousand km. Only thing that it needed was an alternator, the harmonic balancer and a coil pack in all those years. Regular servicing and you won’t have a problem. There was a Taxi in Darwin made the papers that did over a million km. Brilliant engine.

[@waterbourne9282]

Agree on the 3M electrical tape being superior to lots of others in my experience. I've been using it for a couple of decades now and hove found to have the best mix of stretch and tear, longevity, stickiness, etc. As well as electrical work I used to use yellow and a marker pen for temporary label tags during upgrades and to mark out plinths for mounting equipment rack locations on. A very handy product, always some handy around here. Nice product 3M.

[@97marqedman]

I once looked at an almost-new 07 F150 that would barely run…no power, idled poorly, all sorts of weird drivability issues. Ran like a champ with the MAF unplugged. Pulled it out and inspected it: there was a mosquito stuck to the hot-wire in the MAF. Cleaned it off (it was cooked-on), reset adaptive trims, and it ran like a top. Never seen that before and haven’t seen it since. Hilarious. Edited to add: I LOVE evap diagnosis! Everyone in my shop hates doing them and I gladly take em all, even back when I was still flatrate. They’re an interesting system, and every manufacturer does it a little different. Fun fact: the old ford escorts could (and would) happily idle the engine on the vapors from the purge valve alone.

My friend owns a 2003 buick park Avenue. Two years ago he got a p0442 code which as you know is the small evap leak.

I own an 03 park Avenue with the supercharged 3.8L approximately 18 months ago I also got the p0442 code. I took mine to my mechanic for the smoke test turns out it was the gas cap too.

Thats not the Buick motor they finished in the The VR its the upgraded ECOTEC motor much better engine I had VS a well they had sequential fuel injection Holden spent over 3 million $ redeveloping that motor

[@icesoft1]

The aftermarket makes a upgraded upper intake manifold kit, that comes with a smaller diameter EGR 'Chimney' that goes into the lower intake and increases the clearance to the plastic upper intake manifold... We got 382k miles out of one of those 3800's in a 2001 Buick LeSabre, never opened the engine or transmission, just regular oil changes, brakes, and front wheel bearings...

Hey Wes great trouble shooting on the mass air sensor.

1:21 definitely a transmission problem. Likely a clutch stuck or burnt and warped and pressing into each other, or some electrical issue with the solenoids or something with the valve body. Or separate from my previous guess but still transmission related, the torque converter is either worn out and the turbine is hitting or something or more likely based on the codes the torque converter clutch is stuck on or partially on, and the fluid friction from the clutches is allowing the extra torque to transmit to the wheels.
