Thanks, Will do. Also when I pump gas into my car and when I start it up. It tends to squeel like a lil pig lol. then the car shakes then engine cuts off. It does this a few times then it just starts up. any ideas? Ugh thinking about fixing it up and trading it in and getting a 06 G6 GTP

Hi `Justin, from Michigan & Welcome to the MCF.
I would rather have your Monte Carlo SS then a G6,
and not have higher payments.
Give her some TLC & attention : )
I would do like Mod Wiz said and run some sea foam
in it, and have it tuned.
I'm sure you will fall back in love with your Monte.
Good Luck, and let us know what happens.
