A few different thing's could cause that , IAC - idle air control valve , vacuum leak , engine electronics , (sensor's) Would need to do testing to say for sure ! Know how to do basic engine testing ? Your best bet would be to take it to a qualified repair shop that has the diagnostic tools to find an fix this problem ! Wouldn't trust part's store's , they just want to sell you parts !

most auto stores- online - or auto catalogs https://www.opgi.com/restoration-parts-catalog-late-model-el-camino-monte-carlo.asp https://www.classicmuscle.com/monte-carlo-restoration-parts https://restorationpartssource.com/store/GM_Monte%20Carlo.htm these are a few of the catalogs

It is located under the intake manifold. The manifold has to be removed to access the sensor.

Headlights are mostly individually fused these days and details are usually found in the vehicle handbook. I used to work on taxis quite a bit and I noticed the drivers who smoked had many more electrical problems including switches than non-smoking drivers.

Check the owners manual for the car. If you don't have one, you can probably find a free download on the internet.

Yadayada ,don't know where you came up with that . This vehicle has just one ECT - engine coolat temp. sensor . It's an input for the PCM - engine computer . The PCM sends this info to the instrument cluster over the class2 serial data bus. . The proper way to diagnose a problem like this would be to hook up a professional scanner an check input data to the PCM , an instrument cluster . Not guessing an replacing parts . Engine Coolant Temperature Gage The IPC displays the engine coolant temperature as determined by the PCM. The IPC receives a class 2 message from the PCM indicating the engine coolant temperature. The engine coolant temperature gage defaults to 60°C (140°F) or below if: • The PCM detects a malfunction in the engine coolant temperature sensor circuit. • The IPC detects a loss of class 2 communications with the PCM. What engine ? could have come with a 3.4 or 3.8 L . Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor (L36) Left side of the engine, below the thermostat outlet Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor (LA1) LH side, top of the engine Both are close to the thermostat housing , do you know what an where that is ? Follow the top radiator hose to the engine , should be near there . Look at the new part ,can't you match it up.

Check your fuel pressure. And your fuel pressure regulator.

Sounds like a voltage problem. Have Charging, Starting , and battery system load tested.

It's behind the hazard button on the instrument panel. You have to take out the instrument panel bezel to get to it. It controls both turn signals and emergency flashers.

It sounds like you might have plugged EGR passages. When the EGR valve opens, it should allow a measured amount of exhaust gases to re-enter the cylinders. This dilutes the air/fuel mixture to reduce certain emissions. When the computer tells the EGR valve to open it watches for signs that there is the proper flow of exhaust back into the cylinders. If it does not see the proper flow of exhaust, it sets a code P0401- EGR insufficient flow detected. The problem is sometimes the EGR valve itself, but since you replaced that, it is likely that the passages that the exhaust flows through have become plugged up with carbon. To clean the carbon out, you can remove the valve and start the engine. With the engine at operating temperature, pour a small amount of combustion chamber cleaner into the passages. Don't pour too much in or you could cause a hydraulic lock in the engine which can cause major damage!!! Be super careful when doing this as combustion chamber cleaner is extremely flammable and you are working with a running engine. You don't want to end up on fire!!!
