Adjust a TPS Sensor on a 1992 Buick 3.3 V6
Normally you would use a scanner - you might be able to use a meter to measure the resistance in the sensor, I think it should be near zero when the throttle plate is closed.

92 buick century blower motor replace? I have a 92
Found this info. I don't know liter size of engine? For the 2.2L rotate the engine forward slightly. Some, I have removed the squirrel cage from the blower, then removed. I don't know if that would be applicable on your vehicle? As far as the power steering pump, I'd have to look at mounting bracket. All I can do is throw out ideas, I can't see anything from here.

How do I replace thermostat on 1992 Buick Century 3300 6 cyl motor?
I do not have a diagram for you but you can get that from a parts store. If you follow the top hose back to the engine you will find your thermostat. You will probably have to take a couple of other things off to get to it like you air intake. Once you get to it this is a very easy fix. It is located in the fixture under that hose you tracked back.

How do I remove the last 2 bolts from the oil pan?
if the problem is that the socket will not get to the bolts then use long tube sockets or deep sockets
try using 3/8 drive instead of 1/2 drive or even 1/4 " drive as these deep sockets have a small outside diameter

How do I replace the water pump pulley. it broke off.
If you view the other tensioners you will see one that can be loosened, it will allow for some play. Install the replacement belt and reset the tensioner so that it is snug. There should be a belt routing diagram under the hood.

Power steering system is leaking, does not look as
That line rusts and then leaks. Replace the line. This fairly difficult so you can just cut both lines at the bottom where they come from the pump and connect them with a short rubber hose and use hose clamps to fasten them. The Power steering might not work quite as well, but will work.

What causes the engine to buck and jump after the engine warms up?
There could be several things that would cause the symptoms.
First thing, is the "service engine soon" light on?
If it is, then you need to get any stored codes to help narrow the possibilities down. It would really be a help to you if you could get a scan tool that will actually show live data.
The reason I say that is, there are sensors which can cause your Buick to run rough, stumble, and belch after it warms up and not "throw a code".
The one sensor I know will do this is the coolant temperature SENSOR.
IF that particular sensor goes bad, it will NOT set off the service engine light, but it will tell the main computer that the engine is colder than it actually is. (It will usually default to tell the computer the engine temperature is -40° . Yup, you read that right. 40 degrees below zero.
When the computer thinks the engine is that cold (whether it's warmed up or not) it will keep the fuel mixture like the engine is cold. Sending signals to the injectors to keep dumping more fuel until the engine is warmed up. Problem is, according to the temp SENSOR, the engine is always cold so the 'puter keeps dumping the fuel to try to get the engine warmed up.
This is only one example and I'm NOT trying to encourage to "fire the parts cannon" at your car (replacing parts in hopes you fix the problem).
What I am trying to get you to do is, even if there is no service engine soon light, is to get someone to hook a scan tool that can read live data on an OBD I (on board diagnosis, 1st generation) to see if there is a sensor not giving the proper information to the computer.
Hope this helps.

What would cause the radiator fan to not kick on
You have the right idea. The sensor could either be bad or you may have a blown fuse or disconnected wire. The sensor for the fan is located either in your thermostat housing, the radiator or in the head somewhere. Another possibility is low water level. Be certain to always check your water level in your radiator because without water for a sensor to read the temperature, it will not turn on and you may end up ruining your engine by extreme overheating.
