Bad fusible link smptoms
Battery not holding a charge,or dash lights not working,and other circuits that may have a fusible link,follow your positive cable and all wires from being burnt or melted.

Lack of oil after a while would cause the engine to seize. Too much heat and not enough oil to lubricate the parts, things will fuse together and make the engine junk. A problem staying started could be many things: spark plugs, electrical problems, etc.
Where is the fuel filter
As I recall, that was around the time GM was making the change from carburetors to throttle body injection . There should be a very small filter inside the carb, just behind where the fuel line connects to it . Disconnect the battery, disconnect fuel line from carb and reach in with small needle nose pliers to remove. Also there was a "sock" filter located in the gas tank itself but, I'd check the carb filter 1st.
If it's throttle body, I think there was only the filter in the tank but, I'm not 100% sure on that. Your local GM dealer should have references available to let you know for sure.
