2001 grand am scan tool plug location

All of a sudden my 01 Grand Am seems to slip in 3rd and 4th D gear. When manually shifted, it pulls hard in 1st and 2nd without any slippage. However, once shifted in 3rd, when depressing the gas pedal, the engine with rev very high and the car does not go any faster.

If you remove your foot from the gas pedal, the revs drop, and you can feel a slight "lock up" but as soon as you get back into it, it seems to slip again. Does anyone have an idea? Get the fluid level checked, and check all the corresponding fuses for the trans axle.

If thats ok get it scanned with a scan tool capable of reading trans codes. Good Luck. Good Luck Fluid level, 1 No leaks are present. Does running have a major effect on level testing? When attempting to drive, you can feel it shift into 3rd and 4th, but it is like there is not enough hyd. Ok what engine and how many miles???

Yes it should be running to check the level. The fuses are under the hood fuse box. If those are good you might try a fluid and filter change, not a flush! He said he has yet to see evidence that by closing the Wilkes-Barre center, either of those aims were accomplished. That report was not made public, he said, but added that postal unions receiveda copy of it. Kish- el said he has never seen it. He said regardless of what that report shows, the bottomline for him is that the Postal Service is not doing what it was established to.

Theywerecreatedtoservethe American people. What theyve done is a disservice to the Amer- ican people, Kishel said. He said patrons whorelyongettingmedi- cations or checks onspecific days may see delays. The announcement comes on the heels of the postal services plans to review about 3, post offices for closure including a handful in Luzerne County.

Then people started stealing the alumi- num ones, he said, speculating that most thieves are seeking cash for illegal drugs. The holders have different designs for each war and also one honoring veterans who served during periods of peace, Spag- nola said. Often, the flags are discardedonthe cemeterylawn when holders are stolen. County commissioners said they will re- view the request. It means a lot to veterans, Spagnola said. The county has no extra holders at the moment because a small inventory was kept in two Wilkes-Barre locations that were re- centlyfloodedthebasement of theVeteran Affairs building on Water Street and a coun- ty warehouse on nearby Tannery Street.

Spagnola said he will try to clean and pol- ish these holders as replacements for ones that were stolen, but hes hesitant to present them to the family of a newly deceased vet- eran unless they are pristine.

The county will seek federal disaster funding to replace the holders if they cant be saved, he said. Josie had been on The Berlin Heart Pump, which helped keep her failing heart working. MyparentswerebeingevacuatedfromtheWyom- ing Valley on Thursday Sept. They received the best news intheworld. Mybrother, Joe, calledtotell themthat a heart was available for Josie.

At a. Friday morning, her new heart began to beat in its new home. Every day its kind of been a few steps at a time. She is very alert now. She was sedated for about five days. Since thenshe was wonderingwhenshe cango home. After her first biopsy with the new heart, the doc- tors were very pleasedwiththe results.

The powwow is a place I can come to relax. I can go on with my life. Through the bad stuff, my native family is here for me. Joseph Spirit Wolf, 49, of Tunkhannock, was the head male dancer. His impressive regalia included a buffalo bon- net complete with horns. He was joined in one of the first dances by his 4-year-old grand- son Zander, the smallest par- ticipant by far. Spirit Wolf turned frequently to make sure his small shadow was follow- ing safely behind.

Kelly Ormando of Edwards- ville brought her children, Ca- tal, 6, and Breala, 2. Both Ca- tal and Breala visited the face paint artists booth and had brightly colored faces.

Theyve never been to one, Ormando said. I want them to have fun and to experience a different culture. Ricky Wentzel, 26, of Dallas, was hands-down the most joy- ful dancer in the circle. He couldnt stop grinning and made eye contact with many in the crowd. When asked what he liked best about the pow- wow he said, I like the Crow Hop dance. The most unique regalia be- longed to Giovanni Sanchez, 18, of Kingston. A solo dancer, he is part Lakota and part Nah- uatl, an Aztec tribe from Mex- ico.

He wore brightly colored green and orange feathers, jin- gle bells and a beaded spider web mask over his eyes. Our ancestors died making sure that these ways are carried on, he said.

I see dancing as a responsibility I have to my people and my creator. When we follow that responsibility, we get gifted. We are happy. Event organizer Nathalie Bowersox, also known as Wis- teria, reminded event-goers to be sure and ask questions of the dancers. She said that one of the purposes of the event was to educate the public. Bowersox is from Mocanaqua, another area heavily hit by flood waters.

She also hoped that the powwow could raise some funds to help those af- fected by the flood. The drumbeats and singing were provided by a newly formed group called the Wyo- na Singers, led by Dave White Elk Elmore of Shickshinny. The young singers belong to the Order of the Arrow, a na- tional honor society within the Boy Scouts of America organi- zation. Beyond the activities in the circle, visitors to the free event could also shop.

Native Amer- ican vendors offered a variety of goods. She had a display of handmade, one-of-a kind jewelry made from natu- ral materials like colored stones, bone and horn. The Noxen Fire Department provided a variety of foods in- cluding a chicken barbecue. Native American food was pre- pared by Carolyn Posten of Mehoopany who has been making fry bread at the Noxen powwow for the past five years.

The powwow continues to- day from10 a. So when flood- ing struck again this year, and Wilkes canceled its homecoming parade in favor of a community service project, she decided to join in. Holloway, now of Chatham, N. I hope that it makes a differ- ence in peoples lives, she said, because I remember the stories after the 72 flood and what peo- ple went through. The volunteer effort was orga- nizedbyagroupof Wilkes alumni and the Wilkes Office of Commu- nity Service in lieu of a home- coming parade.

Besides packing lunches for the elderly at CEO, which has acted as a distributor of donated food for flood victims, Wilkes alumni, students and fac- ulty also helped clean at the West Pittston home of Mary and John Dunnigan. We were down here and we felt it was better than sitting and watching football eating hot dogs, graduate Doug Phil- lips, of Connecticut, said as he stripped drywall fromthe Dunni- gan home.

My older brother helped clean up after the 72 flood, so now I can say I helped clean up in Wilkes-Barre, too. Floodwaters rose to8 feet high inside the Dunnigans single-sto- ry home on Atlantic Avenue. Im really overwhelmed, Ma- ry Dunnigan said.

I cant believe theres so many people here to help I cant even express my gratitude for all this. Youdont re- alize you have so many wonder- ful neighbors and people who are able to come and help you like this.

Josh Leiber of Ashley, a graduate, said he learned the val- ue of serving his community while at Wilkes, so he was happy to be able to give back. When I first went there the first thing youdidoncampus was community service, he said. So I think its important as you get older to keep that spirit alive. This is actually the first of the homecomings Ive been to, so it got me out, he added.

Andy Miller, a professor of po- litical science at Wilkes, said he anda smaller groupof Wilkes stu- dents andteachers have beenvol- unteering at the home through- out the week, andhe plans tocon- tinue lending a hand when he can. Id like to stay until theyre done, he said. Id like to see us help themback in, to go that far. PETE G. Wilkes alumni, stu- dents and facul- ty helped with flood cleanup at the home of Mary and John Dunnigan.

We did it last week, were doing it this week, and if the need is here, well do it next week, Kohlert said. Were doing it until the people say we dont need your help any- more. On Sat- urday, the Mormon vol- unteers scooped buck- ets of mud from the church base- ment, pres- sure-washed pews and tore wainscoting from the walls of the churchs main hall. This is our community, Kit Adler, who moved from West Pittston to Harding last year, said as he passed buckets of mud up the basement stairs. Im just thankful to help out a fellow church.

Our home didnt get hit; we were lucky; but seeing this, it makes you thankful for what you have. If something would happen to us, we would want someone to help us, Joanne Kohlert of Mountain Top said as she stripped wainscoting from the first-floor walls. Do unto oth- ers, you know. Besides, I cant sit idly by and watch people work; I need to be working. Weve been doing this for two weeks and its amazing how much work there still is. Pastor Jim Thyren of First Presbyterian Church said the continued help the Mormons, other churches from around the Wyoming Valley and his own congregation have con- tributed is very much appre- ciated.

We have 54 people from our congregation that were affect- ed by the flood, so theyre helping their own families in their own homes, so to have these people come and help us is great, Thyren said.

Thats what Christs life was all about; helping the down- trodden. Dis- trict Court, Scranton. Neither Wren nor Petrilla could be reached for comment Saturday. Urban said he had not seen the suit and declined to comment.

Wren, a U. Army veteran, was terminated on Sept. There is no reference to the al- legation in the suit. Instead, Wren claims he was fired as part of a campaign by Ur- ban and Petrilla to get rid of sup- porters of former Democratic Commissioner Greg Skrepenak.

Urban labeled Wren Skrepe- naks boy or words to that ef- fect, the suit says. Wren acknowledges that he campaigned in an open and no- torious fashion for Skrepenaks candidacy for commissioner. Skrepenak, who is halfway through his two-year federal pris- on sentence for his guilty plea to corrupt receipt of a reward for an official action, opposed Wrens firing. A month after the firing, the commissioners unanimously promoted James Spagnola, the countys veteran benefits special- ist, to the directors post.

The U. Navy veteran was 45 at the time. Wren notes the age difference in the suit and says Urban and Pe- trilla treated himless favorably than employees younger than him. In filing the suit, Wren says he has no adequate remedy to re- dress the wrongs and asks for a jury trial. He also asks the court to issue a permanent injunction against the county and the two commissioners, forbidding them from taking adverse employ- ment actions onaccount of politi- cal affiliations and from retaliat- ing against himfor filing the suit.

The state Senate on June 6 unanimously approved the two- page Capital Budget Act, a piece of the state budget puzzle that traditionally passes quietly ev- ery year, along with other bills that make up the global budget deal.

Majority Leader Mike Turzai, R-Allegheny, said Friday that he is determined to get what he de- scribes as an inventory and reassessment of the projects the money would fund. He also wants to know what legal obliga- tions the state has to continue with the ongoing projects. What is the state already on the hook for, and how is the state on the hook for it? Turzai asked. We need to know it, and wheres the money being spent?

And its not a criticism of any particular project. We need to know what are the outstand- ing obligations, and for what is the money going to be used? And is it appropriate? Lawmakers advance a long list of projects far more than could be paid for and the governor determines which should move forward, and when. I think its too open-ended, said Turzai, who believes that borrowing grew too rapidly un- der Democratic Gov.

Ed Ren- dell, who left office in January. Im not sure we should be using that type of money for private- sector projects. If so, what are the parameters of that type of borrowing?

There dont seem to be any. I think we have to start with some building-block ques- tions, and make some policy de- cisions and not just accept the assumptions that have been part of the Rendell legacy. The state consti- tution requires the General As- sembly to adopt a capital budget for the ensuing fiscal year. Turzai was a vocal opponent of the level of state borrowing under Rendell, even decorating his state Capitol office door with a sign pleading with the gover- nor to stop the growth in state borrowing.

Many of the more conservative members of his caucus his core supporters as he rose to floor leader hold similar positions. The borrowing, however, ben- efits many legislative districts, so it is often supported by law- makers of all political stripes. Theres also a lot of people on the other side of the aisle that have these projects and want these projects and want to continue the ones that are ongo- ing, said Rep.

Id suggest that dy- namic is more problematic for the other side of the aisle. Dorothy Clark, SSA spo- keswoman, said the responses to the newspapers questions will be provided sometime next week.

Gilliam provided a brief state- ment: On Sept. A signif- icant number of records were damaged in the flood. Appropri- ate safeguards have been imple- mented to secure the records, and file cleanup is underway. Bell said there were , boxes of SSA records kept in the buildingenoughthat if laidend to end would stretch to Allen- town.

He said 80, boxes of re- cords sustained water damage. The river crested on Sept. Bell said the security guards arrived on Sept. Bell had hired First General Services to cleanupthe other sections of the building. He said that cleanup has gone well. You wont find a speck of mold in that section of the build- ing, Bell said.

But over here, on the SSA side, mold is prevalent everywhere. Bell said there are extensive rules and regulations to reme- diate mold and the process is ex- tremely costly. Basically, SSA will get the stuff out and then give me the keys to a toxic building, Bell said.

Bell said he has expressed his concerns toU. LouBarlet- ta, U. Bob Casey and state Sen. Who pays for that? Its my responsibility as the landlordto suck out all of the wa- ter and remove the mud. But I wasnt allowed to go in there to remove the water and mud and now there is mold everywhere.

Those records could have been saved had SSAacted quick- ly, Bell said. Its my under- standing that SSA has not made a decision on what to do with the records, but they all could be de- stroyed. Members of Rep. Barlettas staff have met with and spoken with Mr. Bell numerous times since the flood and theyre work- ing with the GSAto expedite the process, Kelly said. Bar- letta is very frustrated by the burdensome regulations placed on this company by the GSAand hes pushing for a quick resolu- tion.

Joe Kluger, Bells attorney, said the entire Luzerne Prod- ucts building could be affected. We respect the need for the government to follow proper protocol, as well as to assure proper use of taxpayer dollars, Kluger said.

But the extended delay in addressing the situation has potentially caused not only problems in the SSA-leased space, but potentially the entire building to the detriment of the landowner, as well as the other tenants. Bell said his building received about 4 more feet of water in the recent flooding compared to He said the raising of the levees in Wilkes-Barre and King- ston caused more water to back up into the unprotected, low-ly- ing areas like Plainsville.

Bell said he wrote letters to the U. Army Corps of Engineers when the levee-raisingproject was first proposed, expressing his con- cerns that the higher levees could cause more flooding in the unprotected regions. I told the Army Corps that their project would decrease my property value, Bell said.

Flood insurance will cover Bells cleanup, but not the addi- tional damage and mold reme- diation. They waited until today Sept. Bell said SSA had three em- ployees on site, and the subcon- tractor hired by SSA to manage the records employed 25 people all of which are currently out of work. Bell met with an industrial hy- gienist from Quad Three Group on Friday to assess the building.

The Quad Three hygienist went through the building and told Bell since the building was dark and damp for an extended peri- od of time, the conditions were a perfect recipe for mold growth.

Bell saidhe wrote government officials in an email that he doesnt understand why it took the federal government more than one hour to have security at the site. What if the burglar alarmhad gone off and the facility was be- ing robbed?

Bell asked. From day one, all of the experts have expressed the need for urgency ingettingintothe facility tostart the cleanup before mold started to growand the environment be- comes toxic. Bell said recent cool weather helped keep the situation from getting much worse. Otherwise you would own the Valleys largest petri dish which still can happen, Bell said an industrial hygienist told him.

I sus- pect that it will become known as a toxic buildinginthe commu- nity. This issue will not go away. Piles of Astroturf await removal outside the Luzerne Products Building, remnants of recent record flooding. Stuart Bell, 49, president of Luzerne Products and owner of the building, said the ,square-foot building sustained extensive water damage and he is working to get it cleaned up and reoccupied by his tenants.

Bell said his father, James E. Bell, started construction of the building initially , square feet -- in The elevation of the main floor of the building was brought up to 1 to 2 feet above the top of the levee in Forty Fort at that time. Textile production started in In the early s, prior to Tropical Storm Agnes, the building size more than doubled with a ,square-foot addition.

Luzerne Products remained in the textile business until the late s, Bell said. The company got out of the textile business by selling a portion of its manufacturing equipment to Warp Processing, which then leased space from Luzerne Products and operated in the building until the late s.

In , Bell said the Social Security Administration moved into 60, square feet of space within the building that had been renovated to support re- cord storage. Over the years, SSA in- creased the size of its operation in the building. Its last expansion occurred in and brought its total current square footage up to , square feet. SSA uses a subcontractor to manage the files and it employed 25 people, Bell said.

Of the remaining , square feet of the building, 50, square feet is occupied by Ideal Sleeve International, a shrink wrap printing and processing company with 30 employees. Plainsville Sports, a wholly owned subsidiary of Luzerne Products, Inc. Effective Nov. Additionally, we were in the final stages of planning to build a , square-foot multipurpose synthetic turf field outside, Bell said. Plainsville Sports currently has eight employees and has contracted with up to 20 coaches and trainers who have worked as independent contractors.

The remaining space in the building houses the corporate office of Luzerne Products, Inc. Bell said the private sector side of the building is almost completely clean due to the efforts of First General Services and all of the employees who work for Ideal Sleeve, Luzerne Products and Plainsville Sports. This does not include the cost to re- build everything in the building or re- place all of the assets that were dam- aged by the flood waters, Bell said.

Paul Wroblewski, 23, of North Vine Street, Hazleton, was charged with six counts of sim- ple assault, three counts of resisting arrest and one count each of aggravated assault and terroristic threats. Police allege Wroblewski assaulted Francis Filoreto inside his residence at about 6 p. Filoreto suffered serious injuries to his face and lost hearing in an ear, according to the criminal complaint.

Police said in the criminal complaint that Wroblewskis pit bull bit Filoreto in the abdomen and foot. Wroblewski struggled with officers when he was arrested inside his residence, police allege.

Lets see if we can help. One of the focuses of her research is Blodwen Walsh, wife of Daniel Walsh, who died in Wilkes-Barre in Da- niel having died in What was Blodwens maiden name? Frances writes. If I had this, it would make my research so much easier. Frances, I first verified your under- standing that Daniel and Blodwen lived at several addresses in the Heights section of Wilkes-Barre.

Acting on my understanding that many young married couples years ago moved in with parents, I traced the Joseph Lane address back about 10 years and found it was occupied by Mary Jones, widow of James, and two children: Thomas and Blodwen.

There- fore, it looks very much like Blodwens maiden name was Jones, and she and her husband, Daniel, set up house- keeping in her familys home. Of course, you should check the U. Census for to verify these family connections. Remarriages and adop- tions were common among coal-mining families. But at least you have a prob- able last name to work with.

He is also a professional DJ and an elected com- missioner in Plains Township. He and his wife, Sherry, have two children: Amanda, 17, and Saman- tha, They live in Plains Township. Youve worked in the copy industry and at the same business since What do you enjoy about it?

Were a tight-knit company. Its family-oriented. You dont see a lot of people leaving. Thats what I like: the camaraderie. We all help each other. Many people in Northeastern Penn- sylvania know you as a DJ.

Youve played music at many nightclubs and at hundreds of weddings. Howd you first get interested in spinning records? The Valley West radio club. Leslie Nicholas started the first radio club at Valley West, and I was in it. Later, I saved up my money when I was in the Navy, bought my first setup, and Ive been doing it for 25 years.

Most people who like music simply listen to it at home or in the car, but you get to play it for hundreds of people. That must be fun. When someone comes up to you and says, Thank you for helping make my daugh- ters special day memorable, that means a lot. It really means a lot. But this is my grand finale year. Ive been doing it 25 years, and its just time to turn the page. Ive got three more weddings, and then its time to move on. Youve said that juggling three jobs weighed into that decision.

How did you also get so involved with community projects and, eventually, politics? Right when I got out of the Navy, I joined the Lions Club, which kind of reminded me of the Navy experience, because of the camaraderie. I then I got involved in zoning and was on the Plains Township zoning board for 10 years, and then stepped up to chairing.

I then ran for commissioner and lost the first time. Thats a learning experience, though, not moving up the ladder that you want to. But I like helping people. I like making people happy and satisfying people. Now you are a commissioner. The recent flooding in your township must not have been something you were expect- ing when you took office. This has been a big-time learning experience.

Dealing with peoples tragedies, with their houses and businesses Youve got to try and help out in any way you can. What do you do to relax? Family time. Being home. Working in the yard. Hes my all-time favorite. I definitely dont listen to the music that I play when I DJ. I like Pink Floyd, Journey Youre also a huge sports fan, correct?

Die-hard baseball and football fan. Phil- lies and Redskins. I collect sports memorabilia. Football and baseball Bobbleheads, au- tographs I also collect some Navy memorabilia.

Favorite city? For more than 40 years, she worked as a draftsman a very unconven- tional career for a woman to take up in the s and excelled at her chosen work.

Whenshe retiredin, she tookupa new hobby, quilting, and applied all her art and drafting skills to creating three master- piece quilts. Two of those quilts were based on the Bi- ble, with one portraying key events from the Old Testament and one depicting events from the New Testament. Both quilts will be ondisplay inTunkhannock on Saturday as part of the 10th annual Airing of the Quilts, sponsored by Endless Moun- tain Quiltworks.

Endless Mountain Quiltworks owner Jeanette Kitlin borrowed the idea for Airing of the Quilts fromsimilar events around the country. In addition to a variety of quilt shows and displays in various venues throughout the town, many of the homes lining Tunkhannocks main street, Tioga Street, will be decked out with quilts displayed on porches, fences and even vehicles, as well has hanging fromwindows and balconies on the towns many old Victorian homes.

Its a beautiful splash of color, Kitlin said. Its a beautiful town with beautiful homes and beautiful architecture, and then we add this patchwork of color. Its been described as Tunkhannock putting on its best dress, and its very heartwarm- ing.

The show is going on despite the flood damage sustained by parts of Tunkhan- nock several weeks ago, Kitlin said, and despite the fact that some venues were damaged by flooding and others were tak- en over for use for flood relief.

Plans were shuffled to relocate some exhibits, with great care taken to ensure that those who want to can still walk throughout the town to see the exhib- its. Jeanette Space did much of the quilting, and Mary Louise Carroll did the design and applique work on the quilts. Judes Church, Mountain Top, by the Rev. Home Where is my OBD2 port?
