Found this info.

Check the heater tap turns on and there is good water flow through the hoses and heater core ,check that the water temp is at least 85 deg.cel.. could also be the baffle in the heater core broken off.

ANSWER by patrick mannion on June 01, 2010 Looking at a wiring diagram the dome light and rear reading lights operate through the body control module. Check the BCM 2 fuse, BCM 1 fuse and BCM cluster fuse they may all be in the circuit. These fuses are in the engine compartment fuse box.

Automatic? sounds like it's time for a rebuilt transaxle.

The vacuum line that controls the flap has a leak or is disconnected. If you can get to the vacuum manifold under the dashboard you can see what lines are connected or not connected. Good luck. It's a tight fit to even get under there without taking the whole dashboard off.

e-brake linkage is more than likely seized in the drum/disc(rear end)

Did you do right?Plug in turn on do not start engine press button should start reading.

I'm assuming this is 1.9 litre engine. The sensor is located on the Back side of the engine, (firewall side). It is mounted under the intake manifold at the transmission end of the engine block.

Question edited for clarity, change 'spuddering' to 'sputtering. No Model Type provided. Where is it spitting from? The exhaust tailpipe or the new exhaust manifold? Did you replace the gasket? Were the bolts torqued down? Was the Oxygen Sensor a good OEM one, or a Chinese / Mexico copy? Is the connector clean and making good contact? Did you check for Diagnostic Trouble Codes using a Scan Tool computer? Was the vehicle running recently or stored 2 years with fuel that has gone bad? The answer is in there somewhere Pamela. ..

Question edited for clarity. Under the vehicle by the fuel tank on left side. https://www.google.com/search?q=2002+Saturn+S-Series+SC1+EVAP+canister+location ..

Usually the canister is alongside the fuel tank at the rear of the car. Sometimes vents into the fuel filler pipe.

The person with 'no clue' you are questioning the answer from, is a full time vehicle electronics technician who does this 5 days a week and is our Fixya vehicle electronics Expert when he isn't. He has access to all the Saturn technical bulletins and schematics. This is not a fault you can fix yourself, you need an auto electrician with a professional grade scan tool, access to schematics and the ability to read them. Tracing shorts is not easy. https://www.google.com/search?q=mobile+auto+electrician+near+me ..

Circuit Description This ignition system does not use a conventional camshaft position (CMP) sensor that detects valve train position. The ignition control module (ICM) detects when #1 or #3 cylinder has fired on its compression stroke using sensing circuitry integrated within each coil. The sensing circuit detects the polarity and the strength of the secondary voltage output, the higher output is always at the event cylinder. The ICM sends a CMP signal to the engine control module (ECM) based on the voltage difference between the event and waste cylinder firing energy. This system is called compression sense ignition. By monitoring the CMP and crankshaft position (CKP) signals, the ECM can accurately time the operation of the fuel injectors. If the ECM receives an intermittent CMP signal from the ICM, the CMP Resync Counter on the scan tool will increment. When the ECM cannot use the information from the CMP signal, DTC P0340 will set. Diagnostic Aids • The following conditions may cause this DTC to set: - Low resistance in both the #1 and #3 secondary ignition circuits - High resistance in both the #4 and #2 secondary ignition circuits - An intermittent crank signal • An Intermittent crank signal will result in an interrupted cam signal and may set this DTC. • To locate an intermittent problem, monitor the CMP Active Counter parameter while running the engine with a scan tool. The counter should continuously count up to 255, then reset to zero. The counter will stop counting if a fault occurs in the cam signal circuit. If this DTC is determined to be intermittent, refer to Intermittent Conditions .

That is a whole lot of computer trouble! My advice, sell it for parts. Or A really good auto electrician. https://www.google.com/search?q=mobile+auto+electrician+near+me ..
