Po118 code will not clear on my 1998 chevy cavalier , i put in a new temperture sensor and checked the voltage coming in which is 5 volts and checked the resistance from cold to warm and it is greater

Sounds like you replace the temperature sending unit(for the gauge on dash) what you need to replace is the Temperature sensor for the computer (ECM)

On GM 2.2 ohv engine should the upper oil pump shaft turn freely mine does?

Your cam turns the distributor and it turns the oil pump. If you have no oil pressure it sounds to me like you didn't turn the pump you would need an old distributor shaft to turn the pump a drill and socket won't turn it it is a slotted shaft the distributor sets on check your gauge if an electric one if a hydraulic gauge the check your oil line from the block to the instrument cluster gauges have been found faulty get a hydraulic gauge and connect it to the oil channel on the block to get a true reading what's wrong.

1998 Chaevy Cavalier manual transmission won't shift

Hi orvil brad hear, I would guess since you said you have a brake fluid leak, all of the master cylinder pressure is going out through the leak, not leaving enough pressure to actuate your clutch. If its not this it will problem be inside the tranny and thats another story. Good luck

I have a 1998 chevorlet

Your problem lies with the flow of hydraulic fluid in the transmission and has nothing what so ever to do with the fuel or engine. Have the transmission looked at by a specialized transmission service shop.

My car wont start because the theft system was

I agree with Jon, you need to fix it properly. The key for passlock is just a mechanical key. It's the tumbler that communicates with passlock sensor. I don't know anything about a passlock bypass? There are ways to start vehicle using an outside fuel source, but, because of safety issues, I don't want to mention it. The place where you bought the bypass, do they have a web site? Can you talk to them?

1998 chevy cavalier starts and runs great but when you put it in gear the warning lights come on in the dash and it dings like the door is open, and it stays like that till you shut the car off.

Try this,it wont cost anything but time.Remove the ignition switch(not the key lock) But leave it plugged in. Place the key lock in the run position. Using a screw driver turn the ignition switch and start the car. Does it still ding? It Should... If yes, push in the little white stem on the key lock with your finger.(on the tip BETWEEN where it was connected to the wired ignition switch) Does it stop? If yes, either the little stem has worn down or a dent has worn into the plastic electrical ignition switch. You will have to decide which is not right. But that is the part that sets off the "Key Left In Car" ding.
