I have same problem.
Sounds like a torque converter lock up solenoid.
because your car has some problems i think you should buy another one :)
specify "not go into drive" does that mean it stalls or?
Probably an alternator.
Possible failed torque converter, it will be worth the money to have someone look at it who is good with transmissions.
NO! the Montana is a front wheel drive minivan and the firebird is a rear wheel drive, even if they were both rear wheel drive for some reason, the firebird engine would shred the wimpy minivan trans and it would be just wrong to put a minivan trans in a firebird.
inspect the upper motor mount
If your Pontiac runs a 700r4 gm transmission you have stripped a reverse input shell. The transmission needs to come out for repair.
With soap and water, or a window cleaning product. Alternatively, you can drive through a car wash.
This is most likely the sign of a faulty timing belt. There could also be an obstruction in the drive line. This could also be a symptom of overheating.
