My 92 Geo Metro was having problems when i pushed on the gas, it would miss and **** until it caught gear again. Now it won't start at all. Everyone i've mentioned and showed the problem too all say it's probably something to do with the fuel filter or pump. Spark plugs, transmission, and all fluids are in good shape.

These cars had problems with hydraulic lifters that would get plugged, then pump up or collapse. The exhaust valves would then burn over time and the engine would get harder and harder to start. You may just be at the bad lifter stage but chances are you need a valve job and new lifters. Do a compression test and you'll see what I mean. I'm guessing about 40 or 50 lbs in each hole.
