so a few days ago my car died. i was driving calmly following all the laws and as i accel. my rpm's began to drop (i am pushing the gas) and i hear a deep sound and the rpms continue to drop until the car just died. i tried to restart and same thing happened. its almost as if the car wants to move but is being held back. the car was left overnight and i just drove it around the block with no problems i noticed. however, after i started the car i see a large splatter of oil that came out of both tail pipes. does anyone know what the problem is, how do i fix it, how can i be sure, and how much am i looking at. thank you very much for any help.
