Wow, you guys know your stuff.... First off im a girl, so other than the basics...i leave it to a friend of mine. This time I thought rhe problem was bigger so I took it to a shop in town, very small town... He actually acted as if he didnt have the time for it... So my friend can hopefully use all ur advice im printing to help.

The car has 203,583 miles and ive only had it four months.... I just dont really think its completely abad motor. The misfire it very apparent upon starting and/or idling.... Other than that, youd never know it had it.. Its never cut off on me or not started, even at 20 degrees. I check all my fluids very regularily, being its a used car...tho the power steering is quite hard to get to. I am not sure if he did the wet compression test, but I bet NO.... He never told me the compression rate in #3 but I think the code the computer said was P0303.... I will keep you guys posted, I was told I can even keep driving it, makes no sense, course im not driving it tho... Im starting the detective work in the morning.... You guys are the BEST!!!!
