Wow, you guys rule. I didn't think I'd get this much help. I really appreciate you all taking time to help me out.
I think my Bonne mau only be SE, it has the fog lights, but only single exhaust.

SE fogs are BELOW the bumper at each corner. SSE and SSEi have fog lights IN the bumper toward the center, next to the license plate area.
White Bonne on the left is an SE.....Teal Bonne on the right is an SSEi (same as SSE, bodywise)

So guys, here'* an update.
I replaced my alternator, and the squealing has stopped, and the engine sounds like its running alot better.
However the car still cuts off. I drove around the block to test it, and it seems like after I accelerate, and then just the car coast the oil pressure gauge will drop to nothing, and so will the tachometer, and the car shuts off.
So I'm going to get some fuel injector cleaner, and fill my tank up with high test fuel.
