Sounds like the fuel pressure regulator is dumping to much fuel in the engine
Check the fuel pressure
If regulator is bad replace it
Change the engine oil and filter (dumping too much fuel will thin the oil out)

Take the car to your local Chevy Dealer and trade it in on a brand new Monte

Please check the fuel pressure regulator.... pretty sure that is where you will find the problem at
