Default del sol - SRS, CEL, battery light, and oil on spark plug issues

I have a 95 Del Sol..I've had it for about 2 years and I want to sell it because it's time for a bigger car for me..there is a few issues with the car so I want to take care of them so I don't have any problems selling it..first I bought after market seats and when I installed them I had to unplug a switch that was connected to the bottom of the drivers side seat and now I have my SRS light on, is there anyway for making the light disappear cause I don't have the stock seats anymore?? next..a couple of months ago I was bullshitting with my friends and I wanted to stretch her legs but when I took off I accidentally redlined the **** out of it in 2nd gear and what I noticed now is the CEL is on and when I did some snooping around in the engine I seen like black powder around the spark plug wires and when I pulled them out 2 plugs are filled with oil??..I also have a sticky throttle plate mostly in the morning when I start my car..and when the engine starts warming up I have a surging idle at a stop light or just not moving and when I rev it like up to 2k rpms it stops??
last thing is my battery light comes on when I start my car and when I'm stopped but when I start driving like over 40mph it goes away? Im thinking it's the alternator..any answers will help me out I'll be checking back every 1/2 hour so if anyone has questions I'll respond back Thanks

Pull the CEL, clean IACV & FITV, and have the alternator tested.
