stopped up fuel filter, fuel lines clogged, or fuel pump in the gas tank is going bad.

Don't know. Either a malfunction internally in the ecu, or bad wires from ecu to injectors. You could pull off the ecu connector and check for continuity on the wires from ecu to the two injectors. If the power.wires are not broken and show low resistance, check both ground wires from the two injectors to ecu for continuity. If the wires are good, it must be the ecu.

if it is black smoke it might need an oil change, but if its whitish smoke then your piston rings are finished and need to change your piston rings, practically an overhaul.

Some model of the Esteem you have to remove the transmission,then remove flywheel, you will see it on top

I'm guessing you have a 1.8 liter engine. Below is a picture of its location. As far as replacing it, the transmission as well as rge flywheel or driveplate needs to be removed in order to get at it to replace it. Not just a simple replacement of a sensor. Hope this helps.....

the esteem has drum brakes on the rear and there are not any specal tools needed you can do the job with just a good pear of pliers and a jack and lug wrench, just a little advice remove only one side at a time that way if you forget were all the little parts go you can look at the other side for part location.....good luck
