My sincere apologies for the delayed response.
I am personally going back to answer your unanswered questions.

I do not know if you still need this information, but I am going ahead and answering it anyway.

CLICK on the following LINK. It has several Belt Diagrams, one which will match your specific engine and options (AC/No AC, Power Steering, .etc) that you will need.

FRONT TO BACK OUT RETURN LINE TO TANK

Replace your spark plugs and distributor cap, check that all spark plug wires are firmly seated on the plugs

there should be a sticker on the door that will tell you

most oil sending units are located on driverside rear of engine block or located right near or at oil filter

THE INTAKE MANIFOLD HAS COOLANT FLOW.COULD BE LEAKING AT THE GASKET WHERE COOLANT FLOW THROUGH.

replace the Oxygen senson before catalytic converter this sensor tells the computer to send signal to fuel injectors to allow rich mixture upon start up for warm up then leans out mixture as it heats.

You have a air bubble somewhere in your system ... that is my idea.

if you have to manually turn it off then your turn signal switch has broken, probably have to replace the switch assy!

remove the knob or slide the rubber boot up the shifter. there are 4 screws under the floor mat that hold the boot in place. after the boot you should see four more bolts holding the shifter in place, they are usually 10mm socket. remove them and remove shifter from the top of trans.

make sure you block the wheels and apply the e brake. it only takes the right size wrench on the back by the axle then pull it out of the transmision if you dont plug the end of your tranny all the fluid will run out

what gear ratio is the rearend? have you had the transmission checked, had one that would take off in second gear unless you shifted it manually?

Disconnect heater hoses at firewall. Probably doesn't matter about hose placement, but I always mark them just in case. To remove the fiber cover under dash, take a flatblade screwdriver and pry out the center pin of the expansion clips that hold it in place. There are four 5/16 head screws that hold the bottom/drain tray cover. Core will pull through the firewall and then down. You may have to silicone/glue or replace the foam seal strips on the new core. Before you install the core, check the distance between the inlet and outlet tubes to ensure they match the openings in the firewall. This saves time. It helps if you have someone on the outside to guide you when stabbing the tubes through the firewall. Replace bottom cover. You may have to hold one of the tubes when reinstalling the first hose to the core. Replace any lost coolant and check for leaks prior to reinstalling the fiber cover. If the cover seal is in good condition, any leak should drain through the firewall, otherwise it may leak inside cab. These days with parts from mexico and others, it is not uncommon to get a new defective part.

The color of the two wires shouls be either red with a blue stripe or blue with a red stripe.

check the lamp? fuse? relay? if all is well you may need a new switch

the radio turns on and thats about it. I thought it was the battery because it won't turn over but there is a little bit of juice in the battery.

Remove wheel and remove calipers. It's not very hard at all.

With engine off, remove negative battery cable . Leave about a minute. Then reconnect cable . See if light goes off. You might have to try it a couple of time. If it still stays on, you may want to check your alternator.
