Your True South Sat is the Sat closest to Your Latitude.
For me, I'm at 87.9 west, it would be Galaxy 28 @ 89 west.

Just follow the steps, and scroll down on the page to see everything.

"what do i put my dish where it says latitude."
Motor Latitude is set to Your Latitude, once set it is not changed for fine tuning
Dish elevation to what the Dish Pointer web page or to best signal, can be changed for fine tuning.
point my dish at 91 get 100% signal"
You are looking for "Quality"
"I then go to my setting put in my lat long and my sat at hit go and my motor should go there that is it."
That is the theory. With the Motor at Zero, set up for best Quality on your True South Sat, then pick a Sat as far East / West as you can get, allow the receiver to Drive there, make minor tweaks as necessary.

What receiver are you using?
In the receiver's USALS settings, where you entered your Long & Lat, look for something that says:
Go to Reference
Go to X

now that I put my motor in it says 40 WOW all that sweet for a simple mistake.
I will try this weekend.
Last question I want to make sure
my longitude is 82.10 so 82W is my southern sat cause it does not say which sat
Again Thank you for all of your help

Use the "Compass" Azimuth from the Sat Setup page, and use a decent compass to point in the right direction. Or look at the map and try to align visually. Whith the angles set properly, you would twist the Motor / Dish on the pole Slowly until you lock on your True South Sat.
Which LNB do you have?
