Re: '89 Bonneville stalls at Idle
Could a faulty Idle Air Control valve cause the vehicle to speed up on its own? Does anyone have a check for an IAC, my Haynes book does'nt cover it?

Re: '89 Bonneville stalls at Idle
Help. The new coil pack did not solve the problem. Car stalls and will also accelerate all on its own. I've also changed the O2 sensor. Air inlet temp, TPS and Mass air flow all check out fine.

Re: '89 Bonneville stalls at Idle
Thankyou, all really good info. If sensors were the source of my problems wouldn't I get a Code reading. I am using a GM Code reader by Innova Equus that produces signals by way of the dash 'Check Engine' light ( cheap). I had a similar issue with my 89 ford P/U and it turned out to be failure of ...

'89 Bonneville stalls at Idle
I am having engine stalling issues with my 89 Bonneville. Will only stall at an idle otherwise runs great. When I back off on the gas to a coast engine may stall or when sitting at a stop. Checked Codes and nothing came up.
