I know this is Chevelle exclusive site but just wondered if any body could help out with it's cousin (GM).. 89 Buick Riviera, fuel injectd v-6 hesitates upon acceleration from o-30 intermittently. I've checked the throttle body and cleaned everything. Don't know where else to turn..

Thanks!

Could be a vacuum leak..

Try spraying a little carb Cleaner at the base of the throttle body right at the gasket while it is running and if the idle drops you have a vacuum leak, change the gasket.
