Well, I can't argue with the price.. and I'm sure I can use a "spare" coil pack if I need one. I'll PM you with me e-mail and we can swap addresses.

just a fender and paint and it will look like new. the body lines look straight in the pics, and no major rust. needs some tlc, but hey, there is great pride in fixing it up too. you will be very happy when its done, im sure.

im not 100% familiar with your bodystye, but on mine there are 2 trans mounts on the driver side. they are only like 3 bolts each. idk if yours is the same, but its probably similar. snap a pic and lets see which one you are refering to.

Ok, here's the update... I took er out today and got er on the interstate just to run er a little and "clean out the cobwebs" and done fine. One the way back home though, we experienced the dieing while driving. I went to several places though and only done it once and the "service engine soon" light came on. So, is it sounding more like the ICM or what? When she's running right, I don't have any problems at all. Runs great. No smoke, no hesitation, no backfiring, etc etc.. So, there's my update.[img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

if the ses light came on, that means that the ecu has stored a trouble code. you need to know what it is.

Well, I thought all was getting better than tonight, maaan o man... she just had a "rebelling" spell on me. Died about 3 times right in a row and the tranny was acting up as well. I guess I need to take it to a shop and get the codes checked. I'm getting tired of worrying about er dying right in the middle of a packed road.

Yea, read that.. I'll have to look @ mine tomorrow and see if I can find the plugin. That article is for a pontiac so, I dunno if it's the same or not. Guess I'll find out.
