    How did you do it? I have a 90 Buick Estate wagon. The computer controls everything. Did you use same sensor connectors to engine? I know that 3 sensors on carburetor control fuel. I am right now replacing all the accessories, A/C, Power steering alternator on mine. Found leaks other problems.

    I put a older style Quadrajet and distributor, so the computer controls aren't necessary. However, still trying to get the transmission (200 4R) to shift right. Don't know if the computer controls are necessary for the lockup converter. I still used the factory coolant temperature sender and oil pressure switch so the warning lights still function as original. The A/C ends up being on the other side, so I still need to work that out.

    I wanted to change to a different Carb & Intake. Quadrajets are a pain. I have had several. Tried to get a different Carb & intake. No luck with a replacement. Should have mine back together next week. The to complete the replacement fender painted.
