Have you even bothered to see if you have a dead cylinder or even looked at the plugs?

If it was a dead cylinder it would be much ruff that what it is I belive. When I bought the car the guy told me it recently had plugs put in.

He probably told you when you bought it that it was running good too.

You have to actually start to look the engine over, look at the plugs, etc. You can't solve the problem by asking for help and then doing nothing about it.

Ill attempt to try and get to them. Im going to try and look at the filter today. Im not really as mechanically inclined as you guys are. I was the stubborn kid that didnt go out when his dad wanted to teach him. So by that same token I dont have a lot of tools either. I just dont want to take it in and then still have the same issue when they are done fixing other things. I know the engine needs seals and the oilpan and tranny needs resealing but Im not sure changing any of that along with the plugs and botton O2 sensor will fix anything.

Checked the filter it looked good but wasnt attatched. So I put that back on. Didnt have time to really see if it changed anything from not having a filter. I didnt have time to do the plugs today either so that will be a different day. I did notice when I reved the engine to 3k rpm and left off the gas though there was a pop in the muffler or some such. What would that be?
