Due to timing sensors, they are on the camshaft or the crankshaft, can't remember which. Dealer repair about $500, make sure ALL the sensors are replaced, car will run beautifully.

Your 1998 Oldsmobile intrigue will not idle but will run OK if you keep the accelerator slightly pushed down what could be the problem?

I just had that problem. Starts for an instant and shuts off. Had to drive about 10 miles to home with my foot on the accelerator and my left foot used for the brake. It ran fine that way till home. When I stopped in the driveway it was just fine. May have been bad gas or something blocking the fuel flow. Running it at 60 miles per hour for ten miles cleaned it up.
