I just bought a 1997 Gardnd-Am GT with a 3.1 engine I have 2 problems
Problem 1
The engine starts and it misses big time, I changed the plugs and wires no change the engine light is on and flashing. I do not have a code reader, next question what thpe of code reader will I need for the 97,
Problem 2
The drivers power window is shot, I did take the door apart and tested the power everything is ok, is there a way to manualy raise the window

I posted in one of your other thread last night Rolm.
Heres a link for the coils, Ignition Coil (http://www.autozone.com/servlet/UiBroker?ForwardPage=/az/cds/en_us/0900823d/80/0e/4f/18/0900823d800e4f18.jsp)
You can find other info you may need too.
ABout the window, if you cna get to the motor and turn it by hand maybe you cna get it closed at least.
You said you test it for power, did you test the wires at the window motor also ? Just to double check that the motor is fried before you disassemble the door any furthur.

Thanks for the info I did check the power to the motor plug and everything was ok. I also sparayed the moving parts with wd40 but no luck. man oh man what a horror story , how does one remove the motor, I don't think I will attempt disassembly
