There's a nut on one side of the power steering pulley and a bolt on the other. Use a wrench to hold the nut in place while you take the bolt off.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------vas 5054a

Yes the transmission has most likely given up the ghost. Have a local ****** repair shop confirm this.

You have lost the flywheel bolts.The flywheel is mounted on the crank shaft output.The flywheel is also connected to the Torque converter (in an automatic transmission vehicle). The Flywheel in a 4WD Vehicle is the same as a 2WD - the main difference is the transfer case mounted at the rear of the transmission.If the rsnfer case is broken/bad it could have the same effect, but you would most likely notice the pieces on the ground, or the broken pieces missing if looking underneath...To address the flywheel/torque converter bolts - They are most likely still ijn the bell housing. You will find them when you take the transmission access plate off the bottom of the bell housing...NOTE" They probably won't be in any shape to reinstall, and then they may not be that bad. Sometimes they never get tightened correctly, and eventually work themselves loose - a least likely schenario). Most often the come loose and get sheared off - which ,means no matter how much power you apply or how much you rev the engine in gear - IT JUST WON't GO......Good news is - almost all the auto parts store sell replacement bolt sets (do not just buy some bolts and nuts with washers at the hardware store - otherwise you will find yourself stranded again real soon).

That old of a vehicle you might want to take the cap off and check to see if the shaft is turning. You will be able to see the rotor turning. Also look inside the cap and see if the rotor and cap are good inside.

You said you changed the ignition coil module, not sure if you mean you changed the coil too, if not change that.

hope this helped

If its staying in second gear, problems could be a plugged valve body, electric solenoid failure, or linkage problems.Changing the filter probably won't help.

get a can of carb cleaner and spray along the edge of the intake manifold as well as the vacuum line (including the brake booster), if the idle increase when you spray it then the arear last sprayed is where your vacuum leak is
