    While driving my 98 oldsmobile intrigue suddenly the engine talled/died, I could not control it, it was almost impossible to steer it to the side of the street and the breaks were not responding so well. The Service Engine Light came up just before, it felt like I ran out of gas, but it was almost full.. WTF????????

    Same As Above Except My engine light has been on a couple weeks and recently had the defective upper/lower manifold gaskets replaced due to a hole and leaking coolant.
