Starting Issues sometimes when i start my 94 laredo it acts like it wants to die not every time that it is started tho. Everywhere that I have called to get an answer say that itll cost 100.00 to have it looked at!! Dont have that kind of money. I was thinking maybe oxygen censer but not real sure. Once we shut it off and restart its fine...What could the problem be?

Not a really good discription, but sounds like something I had before. What I found was that by cutting off the distributor holddown ear and replacing it with an old type hold down fork I could change the base timing and fool the cam sensor into thinking the cam was in a different location. It runs like a bear now! HOWEVER this is a quick fix.The underlying problem is that the timing chain has stretched further than the computer can compensate. I will be changing the chain as soon as I have the time.
Without better information I could be leading you astray. Make sure that the cap and rotor don't have moisture in there, and that the wires are in good condition (any sparking from them when you look at them in the dark?)

Brakes lock down at a low rate of speed or when applied

If youve replaced all those parts start by checking everything is mounted correctly. If it is even a tiny amount out it will cause issues.
Next Re-Bleed the brake system starting with the caliper furthest away from the master cylinder and do the nearest one Last.

I have a 99 jimmy with the 4.3 vortec. I have spark, and 61 pounds of fuel pressure. when turned over it act like it starves for fuel and is so close to starting but wont even with starting fluid. I d

It can take 70psi to start a vortec engine cold. It should start on starting fluid tho.
You might want to look at a couple of spark plugs to see if they are in good enough condition to run. The spark could be weak under compression if the plugs are worn.

The speedometer needle on my '94 Villager vibrates

Sounds like the cable is dry and needs lubricating, sometimes you can take off the gearbox end and pour in some oil.
