1/2 gallon of bleach will raise your pool's FC level about 3 ppm.

+ I'm assuming you won't see this till Sunday AM. Add 1 gallon in the AM, and 2 gallons in the late evening tomorrow.
+ Run your pump 24/7
+ Continue to add 2 gallons of bleach each evening, but only 1/2 gallon each AM . . . till your pool is clear.
+ Do NOT worry about your other figures just yet.
+ Get some dichlor, which will add BOTH chlorine AND stabilizer:

24 lbs PoolBrand bagged shock @ Sams Club
Kem-Tek Dichlor 22 lbs @ Amazon

thanks again. yes i did not get this til sunday morning.
i took a guess last night and threw 3 bottles in the pool. i should have maybe measured better, because these bottles are more than a gallon. this morning my pool is now cloudy and the clorine test results well, they are really, really high. it a bright orange. no where near the yellow as shown on the kit. so i can't even give a number to this.
i am guessing that right now i don't need to add any more chlorine. or do i, since you mention to continue adding til the cloudy water is clear?

Don't add any more chlorine right now while the test is orange, but test it again this evening--I suspect it will be low enough to register on your test, and may even be low enough that you have to add a little more. Keep your pump/filter running to help clear up the cloudiness.

when should i connect my saltwater system back up? and when should i add the salt to this?

[PoolDoc]

Start the SWCG, after you've got your pool all cleaned up and ready to go. But, you can add the salt anytime, unless you think you might have to drain some water.

[aylad]

You can go ahead and be adding your salt, but don't use the SWCG until you get the pool cleared up and ready for maintenance.

If you plan to use dichlor, use one of the ones Ben mentioned above. When buying it locally, it is hard to find it without a bunch of unwanted stuff blended in there. That's why we suggest either Sam's Club or Kem-Tech as we know those two are ok to use. If you didn't find the Best Guess Chlorine Chart Janet wanted you to read, it is in my signature below.

tested last night: back to no chlorine again. i did add the salt. did not read "not to connect the salwater system" yet part. so i did turn it on this morning. but it shows too high salt. so i drained some and am adding more water right now.
