check immobiliser operation. run fault codes . check ignition fusible link near the battery

Based on what you are saying you have a slipping transmission.

wiring deatils show me

a number of things cud be failin--however go and titen the cables on the battery 1st-and maybe at the starter--its a common problem that fools even the pros--if it doesnt help then inspec other wiring or get car scanned--u mite test batt if over 3 yrs and also starter plus solenoid--but dont replace parts at whim

CHECK THE WIRES THAT GO FROM THE DISTUBTOR DOWN THE BACK SIDE OV THE MOTOR TO MAKE SURE THEY ARE NOT MELTED TO ANYTHING OR MELTED TOGETHER THIS HAPPENED TO ME AND I FINALLY FOUND THOSE WIRES THAT COME OF THE DISTRUBTOR MELTED SEPERATED THEM AND SPLICE THEM BACK TOGETHER AND THE PROBLEM WAS SOLVED.

Yes, you can change both. But my question is why do you want to change these two main items? Any accidents? Because under normal usage nothing should have happened to either the engine or the chasis. If accidented, then the effort will not be worth the trouble.

Recheck all the electric connections under the hood. Something may have gotten knocked off/unplugged/broken that you did not notice upon reassembly. Also check ALL the fuses just in case there was a short . You may have blown one of the bigger block fuses that are there but tend to go unnoticed. For a blown fuse most people only check the flat fuses. The block fuses carry the heavier loads.

Yes I change it or get it changed. That would be a good place to start, it shouldn't cost that much.

call a junkyard, aka auto recycling place, and have them chase you one down on their parts search.
you can find them online or in the yellow pages.

there might be a air bag in that location.
don't mess with it.

They are fairly easy to do if you have the proper tools. If not then a decent shop should only charge an hour or so to do it.

i do not know but give these websites a try www.alldatadiy.com and www.autozone.com if all fails stop by your local library and get your hands on a Haynes auto repair manual for your car wish you the best of luck Michigan Man.

The cluch not fully disingaging , ( carpet under the pedel, pedel bent , bushing worn out of pedal, low on fluild in clutch master ( brake fluid ) and bad cluch master or slave or air in system.

If it has a clutch cable it may need to be adjusted pull up on the clutch pedal as high as it can go then pust down with your hand it should only go down an inch before it gets harder to pust down as it openes the clutch and shoul continue to go down about 4 or more inches. The pedal should be as high or a little higher than the break paedal. If not the pedal height may be needing to be adjusted higher. Some slave master hydrolic sysems aren't adjusted and have to be replaced to fix lack of enought movement Clutes that are hard to pust in or get much harder as you get closer to the floor the cluch is likly to be worn out and need to be changed with a new clutch kit and resurface the flywheel. The flywheel can change to unflatand the cluch can drag. engine oil getting into the clutch though a leak in the valve cover or rear main can get on the cluch and make it drag and grab.
