I need a drivers sit

your best bet will be a used parts search on an auto recycler's website. you will have to buy the whole seat and take it apart and put the motor in yours. a dealer might find you a new one but it will cost more than the value of the car. get one locally as the shipping for a whole seat again will be too high. motors from several years will work, obviously you want newest and lowest mileage. it is an electric motor and will fail with time and use, like all things.

97 crown was not skipping until i changed

Did you replace the old plugs with the same type of plugs? Also, you may need to check the gap on your spark plugs. An alternative to this would be to purchase the platinum laser plugs, which require no gaping and have a limited lifetime warranty.

Location of drl module

The car has daytime running lights and if they are going on and off it is more than likely that the module that turns them on is worn out (failing). You can replace it, or just pull out the fuse (located under the hood, check owners manual).

Drivers side window will not

That would be a part called a window "Regulator". The first way of fixing the window is to get the replacement part and then disconnect the Battery. You need to remove the door's side panel and this will include the Master switch panel and the Automatic up Relay. You then need to peel off the plastic weather seal. After this a block of wood or a small "C" clamp can be inserted into the door frame and the window supported in the Up position.

You remove the attaching clips in the window frame which releases the old Regulator frame. Then loosen the window motor so the gear drive and the Regulator can be changed. Then reassemble.

OR you can go to a glass shop and wait for less than an hour, watch TV and pay about $35 to $45 in labor for someone to install the Regulator you will be paying for anyway. OR you can leave your car there for the less than 1 hour job. AND you will not have to chase around for your own parts.

Now that you know the name of the part, you can call several glass shops and get your best deal.
I hope this helps.

Steering strange... front end squeeky....

You need to get the front end checked out. It sounds like you have some worn parts under there. like tie rod ends, pitman arm, idler arm or maybe ball joints. While not life threatening it will become worse and could become dangerous. These are easily repairable but it needs to be done soon. Hope this helps.

How hard is it to replace the heater core. i know

This procedure is rather difficult since you have to pull the dash. Oreilly sells a book for about twenty five dollars that will help you out. It is an all day job and hopefully you can do it. If I were you and don't have experience I would leave it alone.

My fuel pump went bad.

the fuel pump can be changed out in the car without dropping the fuel tank as long as the fuel level is below 1/4 tank, the fuel pump module is at the back of the tank facing the rear end, u will need it up in the air to get at the lock ring that retains it into the fuel tank.

Every two days coolent in reserve has to be filled

Antifreeze has an odor. With the engine idling sniff the tailpipe, if you smell anitfreeze you have a situation where antifreeze is getting into a combustion chamber and is being passed out the exhaust. This is not good and requires an expensive repair ASAP. If no odor there, unscrew the oil fill cap, turn it over and look for foam. If it is foamy then your coolant is getting into your lubrication system, again not good and a repair is needed. If it is not being sucked into the engine, then it is leaking somewhere and that should be easy to spot. A green or orange puddle where you park.
