Security light lit on the instrument cluster ? It should have anti-theft system . No , can't just remove it . It has componets - key lock cylinder housing , software programmed into control modules etc... If you just removed or disconnected the pass lock sensor the pcm -engine computer would not see a coded message ,so it would disable fuel injectors an maybe starter . Your best bet ,have a qualified repair shop diagnose it .

SOURCE: 2002 Sunfire TCC Solenoid replacement

hi..the transaxle converter clutch . tcc. uses a solenoid -operated valve located in the automatic transaxle to mechanically couple the engine flywheel to the output shaft of the transmission through the torque converter.that reduces the slippage loss in the converter.reducing emissions.but check the vss first.which is called the vehicle speed sensor.they both work together .if the vss is not working right it wont call on the tcc.
check this out..

SOURCE: location of crankshaft sensor

Hello mitchoreb: My name is Roger and I will be glad to help with your answer. You will need to raise the vevicle in order to see the sensor. Make sure to use safety stands when ubder the vehicle when raised up.Look in the area behind the oil filter.Just in front of the knock sensor.This will be just above the oil pan rail.The knock sensor is a round sensor with a round plug.The crank sensor should hove a oblong plug. You should have a picture along with this reply. Should you need any further help please just ask. Please rate the answer you received as this way we know you recived helpful information.

SOURCE: Were is the thermostat located in a Pontiac Sunfire 2000?

Hi:
Your thermostat is located under the thermostat housing, which is what the upper radiator hose clamps to on the top of your engine. Basically, you need to start with a cold engine, drain your radiator, then unclamp the upper radiator hose from the engine. Remove the bolts from the thermostat housing, and gently tap on it to remove it. clean up the mounting surfaces on both the engine and the housing, and install a new thermostat, and new gasket. tighten to proper torque, reconnect the radiator hose, then refill up the radiator and cooling system.

Is it possible just to remove the vtd on a 1998 pontiac sunfire and how can I find out if it does have the vtd on this 1998 pontiac sunfire ...car is not starting ...ruled out everything else ! Any help...

Is the security light lit on the instrument cluster ? The vehicle has spark ? Does it have fuel pressure ? Did you check with a fuel pressure gauge ? The passlock anti-theft system use's a sensor in the ignition lock assembly .
The Passlock™ lock cylinder is a locking cylinder that turns a rotating magnet past a stationary hall effect sensor. The rotating magnet creates a resistance code (R-Code) that the cylinder sends to the instrument cluster. The Passlock™ lock cylinder interfaces with the instrument cluster through a 3 wire connection. The 3 wires have the following functions:
Plus software programmed into the instrument cluster and PCM/ECM engine computer .
There is nothing you can do if the anti-theft system is not working , taking out parts won't do any thing , the software in the computers still won't let it start . Your best bet ,take it to a GM dealer .
