(VIN CODE 3)
Some 1987 models equipped with the 3.8L SFI engine (VIN Code 3) may experience one or more of the following conditions:
^
Engine will not stay running on the initial start when the engine is cold (with proper fuel pressure and no leak down).
^
Engine intermittently will not stay running on decel under closed throttle conditions (with proper scanner readings and minimum air rate).
^
An intermittent "Service Engine Soon" light with a stored false code 32 on Cutlass Cieras, Delta 88s, and Ninety-Eights, or a false code E032 on
Toronados.
If any of these conditions are experienced on a vehicle when the basic engine, controls and systems are performing properly, and cannot be repaired by
using currently published service and diagnostic procedures, it may be necessary to install a new service PROM.
These PROM's are currently available through GMSPO under the following part numbers:
