Default Help!!

My car just crapped out on me, I drove it about 14 miles let it sit for about a hour, it start rough then the check engine light came one, died once started again, ran really rough, drove for about 75 meters and died. It turns over, I have power... I couldn't check anything else because it's night and nobody will tow it because of the body kit I have on it. Need some advice please!!!

Need a little more info. I could be anything! Spark Plugs, Fuel Filter or a number of things. Have you added any mods lately? Sorry for your bad luck, but if you can, give us some more info.

One new mod, a new exhuast system put together by a local exhaust shop. I put on some tail lights today other than that I can't think of anything. It ran fine, there has been a funny smell since theyd did the exhaust...

It's different than the smell of exhaust.

If you're talking about a catback, it's the oils used in the manufacturing process. It will eventually burn off.
