NO SYMPTOMS TOLD JUST A BLIND HUNT VAGUE.
what part is this, try to be more clearn
seems to me all you know now is SCAN tool shows errors not told ?
you said bank 1.

no engine told , is it a USA spec car,?
1998 is USA OBD2 based EFI.
using a scan tool is always wise after fuses all good.
Generation 7 (B) B IS 1996 UP
3800 SERIES ii ENGINE, I SEE.
THIS ENGINE HAS ONLY 1 AIR FLOW SENSOR FOR BOTH BANKS.
CALLED A MAF SENSOR.
THERE ARE fuel trim sensors for banks called oxygen sensors
front sensors, bank 1 and 2, trim fuel. based on oxygen content of exhaust fumes.
ak.a 02 sensor are no good 25 years old
the maf sensor hot wire can coke up and reads low
and causes weak fueling, on both banks, not just one ever.
we clean the fragile hot wire inside using CRC maf cleaner.
nozzel of cleaner never closer than 6inches, no damage done by the tech, gently
scan the PCM yet?
any OBD2 real scan tool works on this old dog.

I have 99 bmw 323i.i ran it hot and got prob fixed and now the eml and a triangle with circle around it comes on dash and car has no power.feels like it has a rev limiter.wats wrong with my car
have throttle body checked also the MDK throttle motor,
make sure that the dealer has followed service bulletin 12 07 99 for procedure to replace the MDK throttle motor
also have them check for codes,here are some codes,
it could be an expensive job,have them check everything,it is most likely the throttle motor,,throttle body is 600 if they switch it,dont let them do it without checking throttle motor,
codes,

Where are the O2 sensors? I found one directly behing the spark plugs on the back.
The O2 sensor (2 on V engines) are in the exhaust system pipes before the catalytic converter, the next sensor is the efficiency monitor for the catalytic converter system it looks like a O2 sensor but performs a much different function as far as testing goes. The codes you have follow.

P0420 - Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold Bank 1
What does this mean? In most cases it means the catalytic converter is worn out and that is sensed by the catalyst monitor I spoke of earlier.

P0102 - Mass or Volume Air Flow Circuit Low Input
Faulty mass air flow sensor
- Dirty mass air flow sensor (located in the air intake hose to the engine from the air cleaner)
- Dirty air filter
- Mass air flow sensor harness is open or shorted
- Mass air flow sensor electrical circuit poor connection
- Intake air leaks

Whare is the Cam position sensor located? 1998 Buick Lesaber with 3.8L Issue is Car will turnover but not crank on hot days only. In the morning the car will start every time but later during the day it...
It is on the front of the motor just under the rear part of the waterpump in the timing cover. But I doubt it is the problem. Sounds more like a bad crank sensor. Which is located behind the crank pulley.

IAT means Intake Air Temp sensor. O2 is reffering to the Oxygen sensor. These are two different sensors on your vehicle. These perform different functions.
