The check-engine light came on and I took it to Auto Zone. They told me it was a cylinder 4 misfire. I am not sure what this means. Can I still drive it? How much will this cost me??

    You should not drive your 1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue to much until you have whatever is causing the misfire repaired. The catalytic converter can be damaged by a misfiring engine. There is no way to tell what the repair cost would be until the cause of the misfire is known.
