The weather has been freezing here in WV. My car has been running fine, just had an oil change. I started my car the other morning, and it ran fine for about an hour (I left it running when I wasn't driving). When I got in to drive, I took off down the road. When I came to a stop sign, I realized my brakes weren't working right. The pedal was stuck at the top, it felt like I had no power brakes. I parked the car and left it alone for a few hours. I went to start it up later, and discovered that the engine was now sputtering, and didn't want to idle. The brakes still didn't work. I could smell somthing burning once the engine got hot, abd noticed some steam coming out around the cadalaic converter. Any input at all would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
