i searched for everything in the title but nothing relevant came up. So today, i was driving my 90 hatch and everything was fine, until i drove home from church. I noticed a ticking noise from my engine, kinda like it makes whenever i start it up. i figured it was nothing big, and was gonna wait till monday to check it out... but then a few hours ago i left to meet some friends and my car BOGS! and idles insanely rough.. i pop the hood and the motor is literally shaking like no other! plus there is no power and that strange ticking noise is back... constantly (instead of only for a few seconds when i cold start the car). i look under the car and the tranny seems to be covered in oil, but there is no leak... and there seem to be fumes coming from the middle of the undercarriage (could have been my paranoid imagination), and i smell oil/gas(once again, perhaps im paranoid)?? im a total noob when it comes to cars so please any help would be really appreciated! thank you!!
