you also need a repair manual. these forums are to help those with these tools. then the info gathered here can help members like you fix this old beater vehicle.
I suspect most of the parts you threw at it needed replacing anyway.
its almost an antique now.

I have the Haynes repair manual. Not a beater is actually in good shape. It is dead in the driveway now and I cannot find a code reader. I am sure not [u]all[u] members have all the tools needed. I am a construction manager and carpenter.
I do appreciate the input I am getting along with some patience, my frustration level is way up so please bare with me.
I check the MAP sensor and found it to be bad. Replaced it. I checked the TPS, it also seems to be bad. I get 5v from the connector, but when I back probe I got nada. I have one screw out, however it would seem some one may have tried to change it in the past, the other screw is rounded out. Any constructive input for that. Is there a easy out for what looks like and 8 size screw? I tried a cutting wheel on it to use a slotted screw driver, but no luck. Soaking in PB blast at the moment.
