Engine Codes... irritating me!!!

Ok... so I keep throwing codes, pulling them, and they're always the same.

32 - EGR Malfunction - Cali Model WTF! My car is an original KY car. Help?

34 - Knock Sensor - Damnit, do these go bad? How can I tell?

72 - Catalyic Converter - bla bla bla, ok so its bad, I'll just get rid of it.

103 - Park/Neutral Switch - Where is this located? Car is a 5-speed, whats the fix for it?

But, FWIW the car runs great. No real problems that I have encountered.

Well, I cleared my codes today in between squal lines (my area got hit hard by really bad t-storms and tornados), and I drove around for a lil bit tonight when everything calmed down. The car hasn't thrown any more codes... yet. Maybe they won't again :cross fingers:

WOW you got codes and you cleared them. nice fix LMAO

1. ...
2. How can you tell? You get an ECU code.
3. ...
4. ...

...are you pulling the codes using the ECU diagnostic or real shop scanner (i.e. SnapOn)? Or are you using some universalgenericworkswithallimports scanner thing from like Kragen?

I'm getting them straight from the ECU.. Yea, I'm clearing them because its not hurting anything to clear them. First couple of times I've cleared them, those codes did not come back after I fixed them, then the ECU threw new codes. A couple of these I cannot fix mysef.
