1993 Buick Regal 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

Hi fellas. Sure would appreciate some help. Any idea why my car would cut out allot until the engne gets hot? Usually happens in cool damp weather. Also what two holes under the dash would I put a jumper wire to get the codes? Thanks a mllion. PS Send me your address I could make a donation to as I don't have a credit card or bank account. T.R.

Jumper the last two in top row. Key on count flashes
Then post. When you say cuts out is it like a miss?

Thank you much bud. Yes it is like you're turning the ignition off and on. Runs like they used to when a fuel filter was bad. Thought it was going to strand us today. After the engine gets good and hot it will stop and the check engine light will go out. Thank you again for your help. T.T.

When you can post codes. When it goes down see if you have spark pull wire hold to block. If good spray some cabr cleaner into air intake, see if it lites
