You will probably have to remove the fan.

Local parts stores will loan out O2 tools - you put down some money, use the tools, return them and get your money back.

Next, those things have been there for years so it is going to take a bit of "leverage" to help them decide to come out . You can also use your favorite "spray lube" to help them decide to come out.

Ok, you need to figure out if you are missing fuel or spark when the engine will not start. Do you have a timing light to see if you are getting spark when the motor won't start? You can also try spraying starter fluid into the intake while someone tries to start the car with the key.

but what about the times it starts but its like a miss or a flooding problem but if i hold the gas pedal down about a 1/3 of the way for about 10 to 15 seconds it clears up same thing look for a fuel or spark problem. and will run fine for a far as you drive it. THANKS AGAIN

The problem you have when the engine will not start is likely the same problem as the miss when it does start.
