engine randomly reving itself
Did you have to disconnect the exhaust system, or mess with it in any way? A bad oxygen sensor can cause this, as the ecm controls the fuel/air mixture by getting info from the oxygen sensors.
You may have forgotten to plug one back in or it may have become disconnected while you were working on it.

<U>maybe, but i still trust them more than the mechanics in the small town where i'm going to school.</U></P>
<FONT size=2>like i said, i would've if i could've. i was going to last weekend with some buddies but they said that the 94-95's have some special cable going from the tranny to the engine that needs a special tool to take off, so they said i should go to a shop, never heard that but didn't wanna take any chances.</FONT></P>

i have no idea what so ever. i've never heard of that, but they said the 94-95 has some hydraulic cable(special in the sense that it was unique to the 94-95) that needed a special tool to take out. they said that they didn't want to change it with just us because they were scared of f****n it up w/o that tool. anybody heard anything about this? anyone changed their clutch on a 94-95?

good choice <IMG src=smileys/smiley4.gif border="0">. auto trannies have a bunch of sh*t going to them so if it was auto the problem could be in one of those. but i dont know sh*t about autos so if it was i couldnt really help you out, but maybe someone else could. </P>
