I have no idea what is wrong now....*sigh*
I posted a couple days ago about my EG6 with a B16A2 breaking down. Myself and the mechanics I took it to thought it was the clutch.
I called up D&D today, and they said the car ran fine. They didnt even have to pop the hood. They drove it for a few miles and all was ok. SO I went and picked it up.
Now, I start driving it home which is about 3 miles away. I make it perfectly fine for about 2 1/2 miles then **** goes all weird.
I slowed down to make a left hand turn in my neigborhood. Had to go slow cuz of the dip in the road. After Clearing the dip, i put her in 1st gear and let the clutch out with some gas.
The car just kept stuttering.. .and popping noises fromt he exhaust. So i gave it a little more gas in 1st and let the clutch out at almost 3000RPM. ran fine for about 100ft, then it started to stutter and pop again.
I switched to 2nd gear, ran fine for a few feet,....stu..stu..stutters and more pops. I dealed with this for another 1/4 of a mile, and 2 houses down from my house...The car completely died and I had to push it the rest of the way.
The battery light did come on, but no other warning lights. The car will not start up now. starter turns, but no start up. I popped the hood and noticed more oil than usual (Yes I have a leak). It was creeping down on top of the transmission.
Any help is thanked.

nope no oil in the radiator fluid. People in GDD are telling me it may be the head gasket.
Just for future reference, If there were oil in the radiator...what would that mean>?

Generally, a blown headgasket.
The leak is dripping down onto the tranny, can you see from where?
