No heat drivers side on my 2005 impala?

Due to the way GM decided to do the control of the heaters in the seats. It's what's called bang-bang control. The control system turns on the seat heaters and when the desired temp is reached, turns it off. This is very hard on the heaters. Bet you'll find the seat side of the heater open. Best solution, I believe, is to replace with an aftermarket seat heater.

Where are spark plugs on a 1994 eldorado?

Does this have a 4.6L Northstar engine? Each cylinder head has four plugs. Look at the valve covers. If you have ignition wires (I think you do) you will need to pull them up out of the valve cover to access the plugs. If you have a later COP style ignition, there will be a coil sitting on top of each plug which needs to be unbolted and pulled up out of the valve cover hole to access the spark plug.

In either case, before pulling a spark plug wire or ignition coil out of the valve cover, twist it back and forth a bit. If it's stuck, you may need to spray some silicone based lubricant into the hole. If the boot of the wire or coil is reddish or brownish it is burned and _must_ be replaced. This is usually cause by a leaking spark plug due to manufacturing defect or being installed undertight.

What is the freon capacity for the air conditioning system and compressor oil on a 1998 H1 Hummer?

First off, it does not contain Freon. Freon is R12 and your Hummer contains R134a which is not Freon. This is not a DIY job. If it is low of refrigerant then it has a leak, and it is illegal to add refrigerant without repairing the leak. I suggest you take the vehicle to a professional that has the expertise and special tools to accomplish this repair.
