I have a 1990 Cutlass cierra. The car will start and run for
about 30 seconds or until you give it gas,then it immediately stalls. I am getting
a code 42. Also the radio antennae wants to keep going. Can you tell me
what is wrong and what I need to do to fix it.
Thank you
An OBD Error Code 42 for a GM vehile indicates that there is a problem with the Electronic Spark Timing (EST) circuit (i.e. electronic ignition module).
You might want to clear the error code and try it a few times to make sure that is a consistant error code before replacing anything though.
