Check Engine Code 23
Low temp @ manifold air temp sensor OR throttle position sensor error...what exactaly does it mean? And...what do I need to get to fix it? I was driving on the highway at 60MPH then the choke light came on, then the check engine came on.. I am unsure at this point. Any help?

Depending on what fuel system you have 23 can mean any of the following.
23 M/C solenoid fault (Carbureted)
23 MAT sensor Low temperature fault (EFI/TPI/SFI)
23 EST bypass circuit fault (Cadillac DFI)
Since you info says LG4 im going to say that the M/C(mixture control) solenoid in the carb has taken a vacation or there is a wiring/ECM problem.
