95 SSEi - Repairs list
my 95 had a TC light only and at other times I had a check engine light only. The two were completely unrelated.
EGR and probably wheel bearing... I'm letting the new owner hash out the TC light.

1) New EGR (if anybody has a used one, hook a brother up)
2) Front left wheel bearing (found a great deal here ebay )
3) Fix the e-brake
Once those are fixed it should pass MD inspection. I'm not 100% sure if the ebrake is needed to pass though.[/url]

EGR valve check GMPD and see if it cross references with other vehicles and years. That'll be your best way to locate one cheap.
Once again, thanks for all your help.

Thanks for the info Bill and Drifter. I'll follow up with what you've given me and let you know how I make out.
As for #14 Bill, hard as it may be to believe, we're not that far north from where you are. The sun does occasionally get hot enough for us to use the A/C. Anyway, I understand it'll come in handy when I get to the "hot flash" stage of my life. Frank has a few years to get it working before I get there!
Talk to you soon,
Cathy

On the '95 the pulley below the alternator should be the idler pulley on the tensioner. If your local parts store doesn't carry it, it should no tbe too expensive from a Pontiac dealer. Mine was $35US, but local store should have one for less.
FYI - ZZP is zzp.com
If he'* planning on doing the tune-up himself, buy NGK, AC Delco, or Autolite non-platinum plugs only and AC Delco or Beldan wires.
Try to get rubber trans pan gasket, not cork. Re-use original if still good.
