I only show the pump in the tank in the parts books. Nothing outside the gas tank.

The fuel pump is on top of your fuel tank. You will have to drain your tank or run it empty if it is still partially working. Loosen the straps, drop your tank, remove your pump and replace. Now sounds easier than it really is but not an impossible job. You will have to get the car high enough to get the tank to drop and work under it. Make sure you use jack stands and not just jacks. Also do not forget to disconnect the battery before you do ANY work.

the injectors are fired off of ground from the ecu check to make sure you have both and a good pulse to it a NOID light is perfect for that also make sure you have spark to that plug and with a bottle of water or spray can of carburator cleaner with the motor running spray around the intake near number 4 cylinder and lines to see if there is a vacuum leak

probably, the brake lights are always on. either the brake pedal switch is short, or it is in need of adjustment

Throttle Position Sensor could be acting up. You just replace it. No troubleshooting correctly by the novice.

auto shut off possibly due to faulty accelerator.(just a guess) Engine light on?

Obviously there is excessive pressure coming from somewhere.The two most likely places are a defective radiator cap(not allowing excessive pressure to escape to the resevoir),or a blown head gasket(allowing cylinder pressure into the cooling system).

THIS CAR DOESN'T USE THAT TYPE OF SWITCH.

There are a few things that cause overheating. Here is a list of the most common causes:

the fuel filter is located in the engine compartment, mounted to the firewall. On some 1996-98 2.0L non-turbo engines, the fuel filter is mounted to the fuel tank.

It acts like the ignition modulator, a little half moon shaped black plastic coated box under the distributor cap. That is if your car has a distributar cap. Not sure where it would be located if you do not. This will cost you dearly to replace if you buy one new. If you can locate the same distributar at a wrecking yard then take it home and remove the modulator and replace your old one it will save you a bundle. These run on several different years in most cases so even if the distributer is wrong the modulator may bethe same one. Best to get the correct whole distributer so you are sure. They won't sell you just the modulator. Tjhe distributar is worthless with out it. Should only cost you 30 to 50 bucks used but 500 at the dealers new. If you can't find one at the wrecking yard then try ebay next. I hope this helped. The Raz

check and see if the head gaskets are blowed you may have a cracked or blown head or head gasket

The flashers are usually located in the fuse box. I don't know your make/model specifically but they're pretty much all the same. It will probably be a small metal cylinder in one of the corners of the fuse box. About the size of a half dollar. Maybe a little smaller. 1/2"-1" tall. It'll pull right out with your fingers.

have you ever replaced the timing belt? it may cause that condition, before they break often teeth will start to strip off it and the timing can jump and cause it to run poorly but it it jumps too much it will damage the eng as far as the oil consumption, that eng has problems will valve seals.

Could be lots of things...bad grounds for battery, no spark to plugs bad plug wires, bad fuel filter or pump.
