So, a few days ago I posted here about what I could do to get more power from my 4 cylinder... well thanks to all who replied but... I'm not going to be able to do any of that now!!! On my way down I-64 going through Indiana I suddenly notice a really loud and high pitched screech come from somewhere in my car. Of course I had no clue what that meant but I just happened to look down at my temperature gauge and the needle was all the way at the very end of the L in normal. The only thing I knew to do was blast my heater and get off as soon as possible. So I crank my heat and oh man did that suck!!! in 90 degree weather here I am with the heat on full blast Anyway, I'm looking for the next exit and look back down at my gauge and it's way up in the red now so I knew I just had to get off on the shoulder cuz I wouldn't make it to an exit. The traffic was kind of bad and I needed to switch lanes to get over to the shoulder but I then notice that my acceleration is completely gone. When I hit the gas it just made this AWFUL noise that I can't even describe and it would not go any faster. So... I hit my hazard lights and just coast along trying to get over in the other lane... this is when I realize that my power steering is completely gone also! I can BARELY steer it over into the other lane and finally got it onto the shoulder. The car is just a HUGE cloud of smoke. Blowing out the exhaust, out the hood, even out the vents inside the car... I tell ya I have never seen that much smoke in my life. This all happened a couple days ago and I have since had it towed to my house. It will not start. When you turn the key it just makes this loud, high pitched sound and nothing happens. The battery works fine but the ignition just does nothing at all. I REALLY REALLY do NOT have the money to have it towed to any mechanic. So I was just wondering if any of you might know whats wrong with it, or if its even FIXABLE because I think it's just shot What REALLY gets me about this whole thing is that I just put in a new sensor in it that was working perfectly keeping the car cooler than it always used to be. So I THOUGHT I had this whole problem resolved with the over heating crap... but no...
