As long as you have an original key, you do not need a separate module for a 1995. you just need an ohm meter to get the chip resistance on the key body and then make your self a chain of resistors to wire in line at the base of the column to bypass the lock cylinder.

With no screws and bolts in place the door panel is held on with 'push in' clips on the front, bottom and rear edges. The top edge is simply hooked into the gap the window glass lifts up through. Using a plastic tool work your way around the edge to lever the panel away from the door. Once you get two or three clips released you should be able to get your hand in the gap. Slide your hand around 'popping' the rest of the clips. The panel should then swing out at the bottom far enough to slide it up out of the window slot. You should be able to reach in and pull the door release cable by hand.

Lets start from scratch. Have you check for spark? On all cylinders?

Hey check wheel bearings. I was told that this is a sign that they are going bad. or there is a wire runs to the back of the wheel that may short out.

have you checked for blown head gaskets. info available on line.

thinking back to my 92 olds 98, you have to take off the inside door panel, look in the door, on the bottom of the glass it will be attached to the regulater, which is the mechanism that raises and lowers the window, disconnect the glass from this piece and just lift it out the top.

Purchase 1 more can and allow it enough time to fully get into the system. You can have the car running while this is happening so it warms the can allowing it to charge faster. Let me know.

Sounds like your rotors are beginning to warp. This causes uneven braking which is why it takes longer to stop. Have your brakes inspected and resurface or replace the disc brake rotors.

Smart sensing. If your air direct is set to Defrost the windshield, it is a proven fact that chilled or warm air that has gone through the AC element dries the moisture out of the air and prevents fogging up.

Considering the age of your car I suspect the idle speed is not adjustable and is programmed into the engine management computer and regulated by the idle air valve or throttle positioning motor. A slow or high idle speed tends to indicate a fault but if after a thorough inspection the idle is still incorrect adjustment should be carried out using dedicated diagnostic equipment.

Karl, have you confirmed good fuel pressure? It sounds like a weak fuel pump to me. Is your Check Engine light on? If so what are the codes in the computer?

• Would be hard to say what the problem is without seeing firsthand what's going on, and testing electrical systems for fuel - ignition and OBD1. Does the check engine light come on, any codes stored in the engine computer? Voltage drop testing electrical circuits - battery cables , battery connections, checking power and ground circuits for the ECM/PCM - engine computer . You might try cleaning the MAF sensor - (mass air flow sensor), clean throttle plate, IAC - (idle air control valve). After driving 5 minutes and then it dies does it start right back up and drive ?
