Then why did you have problems checking the oil level afterwards, as per post no. 6?

Until you decide to provide us with more information, all we can do is make wild guesses. Cars don't just stop working for no reason.

So you drained the oil and changed the filter, put almost enough oil back in. Then you started it, came back in an hour, and it wouldn't start. Maybe it's out of gas.

Well, that additional information really helps. " it took for ever for it to register on dipstick" - we know, you already told us that. Paragraphs and punctuation would really help, along with answering the questions raised (post 6, 11 etc.)..

About the only advice I can give is - have it towed to a shop, cause you ain't gonna get anywhere trying to fix it over the internet.

I'm out.

When you say you jump started "at the battery", where was that?

Not being mean, it's common for new owners to not know where the battery is in these cars.

Really hard to read this, but,,,,,,,,,,,

Sounds like you changed the oil and filter and then tried to check it with the car still on the ramps ?
No. To be accurate, you should only check the oil level with the car sitting on a level surface.
