Index mark and links will only line up once per 120 rotations.
If it turns freely by wrench with the spark plugs out, it will not have any clearance issues.

Even if the coolant (antifreeze) level is sufficient, the heater does have a bad habit of turning into an AC if the low coolant sensor is lit. Otherwise, something is wrong with the heater core. This jewel is snug as a bug in a rug, right under the dash console thingy; good luck @ getting to this. Whether you access it from the firewall or under the dash, it's a real bother. The 2000 OI is the most wonky car I have been given the pleasure to own, as it is electrically driven. If something goes wrong with a sensor, fix the sensor and then the problem it suggests (since the sensor is probably the real problem.)

Either your idle bypass valve has failed, or you have a fuel contamination issue.

if it has a thermostat it will be under the top radiator hose on the head or under the bottom radiator hose on the block

bet a new key made at the dealer,yours is too worn

No there is no chip on that model. It is a Passlock system and the chip is a transponder instead. The security, antitheft or lock picture/icon is a visual indication that something in the car's antitheft system is failing. In most GM cars and trucks there is a hidden system that most people are unaware even exists. From the moment you put your key in the ignition, there begins a constant line of communication between your key's security chip or transponder, to the ignition's lock cylinder, and then to the car's TDM (Theft Deterrent Module). These 3 parts are in CONSTANT communication. If the key is in the ignition, then these parts are sending signals to each other. The security light illuminates when that signal gets broken, even just for a second. When the signal breaks, the car misinterprets this as an attempt at theft and goes into antitheft mode. The car thinks its being stolen or hotwired because it is not getting that signal from YOUR specific key. This is why the security light turns on and shuts down your vehicle. This link explains it pretty well. http://www.diy-gm-security.com/

Tires...rear suspension...rear alignment - in that order. I had a car with a really bad rear alignment that hop sideways every time you went over a bump in the road.

It is located under the dash left side above the parking brake ! There are four wiring connectors to it !

Main relay ? where are you missing power ? In the under hood fuse / relay box check IGN 1 an IGN 2 fuses both 50 amp .they supply power to most of the vehicle !

If when the sensor was changed , the system lost a lot of anti-freeze, you may have an air pocket. Also you may have a bad thermostat. Was your no heat problem reason for changing sensor? Either way change thermostat, and bleed the system. GOOD LUCK FRIEND.

2 things if its not above 45 degrees it wont come on , and did u check Freon level with gauge keep in mind while system is off it show a reading like its over filled so shoot some Freon in see if kicks on while engine is running

usually dials going crazy indicates low battery and/or failing alternator. Make sure they are 100 working before making a lot of other fixes.

there should be a decal under the hood somewhere that shows what the plug gap is. it`s usually .045".

Most likely a BCM problem. Have the codes read for a more accurate diagnoses..

You need to have the car analyzed to see why the light is on. My light came on on my 2002 Olds and I needed a catalytic converter to pass smog inspection. It could be multiple things so let an expert check it!

check for broken timing belt. check for loose /dirty battery terminals. have a load test done on the battery to check for internal failure( broken cell bridge.)
