Lately my car ('90 F/B, auto) has been giving me some trouble while driving.

Whilst turning, the car feels as if it stalls for a second or two and then suddenly jerks forward, it's also been feeling a lot more sluggish lately.

I was driving a while ago on a street behind my house, going about 30mph, when suddenly my e-brake light came on, my speed dropped by itself to about 10mph, i couldn't accelerate, and could barely maneuver the steering wheel. I had to restart the car.

Any ideas on what's causing this?

Also, sometimes when i come to a stop, smoke is coming out from under the hood, I think there might be an oil leak and the oil is burnin', but I'm not sure. Any ideas?
