You know the bar at the top of the page where you type in websites? Type in www.youtube.com and it will take you to a site with a bunch of videos that have been uploaded. Most of them are pretty dumb and useless but some can be pretty informative like videos on fixing things on your cars. You can search for videos at the top of the page.

Huh, never knew any of that before. I can fix a car but have no clue how to run a computer.

Hey, you were able to figure out how to make an account on here!

Update: I have made plans to go and try and fix these issues on the car this weekend. I had a friend who volunteered to help me and said to bring it over and said that after we fix it and when the snow melts (it is supposed to be 50 on Saturday all the way through next week) I will bring my Camaro over to do my spark plugs and O2 sensor. He said he would do it all for free which surprises me because we have only been friends since the summer. I think he does it because he is tired of working on his POS Honda suv and wants to work on American cars instead.

Put a whole bottle of Valvoline ATF-4 into the car today after letting it warm up. After putting it in and driving for 10 minutes I tried to hammer on it but the car still wont go past 3,000. Do I have to wait longer for it to work? Or does this mean that it might just be the fuel filter and would I be able to get one at Autozone? If so, for how much?

You are not going to find a fuel filter for that car at Autozone. The fuel filter, fuel pressure regulator, and fuel pump are all parts to the assembly of the Fuel Pump Module located in the gas tank. Here is what it looks like and prices:

The gas tank needs to be removed in order for this to be changed.

You can test your fuel pump and fuel pressure regulator by inserting an inline fuel pressure gauge in the fuel line under the vehicle.

I know this is not what you wanted to hear, but if it is a comfort to you, you are not alone with this problem. My Intrepid does the same thing when starting (I guess it is a common problem), and I will be getting mine tested on Mon. I also have the same lock noise problem, and door lock on passenger side is messed up, same with the car having a dent.

But I do know what Youtube is, and I know how to use an address bar in the browser!

Do you have a white Intrepid too? lol. Dang, that sucks because I was hoping that when I first get a job that mt first check would go to gas, insurance, and maybe some restoration for the Camaro. Then again it is finally starting to warm up so I might be able to hold off on doing that until October. I was hoping to remove some dents on the outside of the Camaro and then painting it and then a little bit of interior work. Once that is done some work to reinforce the engine, tranny, and rear end. Then possibly a supercharger or two!
