What will the 1991 Chevrolet lumina do if it has a bad control module?

Could do any number of things. Not start at all. Start and run fine and take random spells of misfiring. Could start and run fine while it's cold then start running worse as it warms up. You can pull the ICM and take it down to AutoZone where they can test if for free. Have them test it several times until it gets warmed up. A lot of times these won't show being bad until they get hot.

Yes. If the choke plate is sitting in there loose if can close by itself which would flood the engine. Also, without the choke you would have a very lean condition during cold start-up until the engine warms up.

Why does a 1986 Jeep Comanche 2.8 liter start to sputter when it warms up and givenm a little gas?

First, what have you done maintenance wise? Replaced the Air filter lately? Replaced your PCV breather or PCV valve? Tune up done? Evap system in order? etc..... If you have maintained these things great !!! Then; Most likely, your carburetor is running too rich.... So when starting cold, your enging is running too rich which will cause the sputtering until it warms up.... The 2.8 carburetor has no external adustments to correct this problem so a replacement carburetor or overhaul may be in order to correct this. But if you have not changed your air filter in awhile, you could be starving your jeep of the air it needs to run properly which could also cause the sputtering....
