I was driving up the mountain passes, having my SVX in 3rd gear. When I would slow down(letting off the gas, or stepping on the brake) it would hesitaite, badly. The RPM's would rev up, then go way down. Then I would shift it back to drive, and it would be ok. I didn't want to investigate my problem much, because it was on the interstate. I pulled over to see if something would happen(Parts fall off, engine blows up, something of that sort) I put it in 3rd again, going about 20 m/p/h and it didn't do it anymore.
I have no idea what to think.
I'm not sure if the car would have staled, I didn't want to test it on I-70.
There is my problem, but I'm going to vent about something too
I was going along, about 80, when I heard a POP from my engine. I look in my mirror, all I could see was smoke.!
I pulled over, and guess what I found? ALL of my oil leaking EVERYWHERE!
My oil plug was gone
My boyfriend changed my oil last weekend. If he didn't tighten the nut all the way, why did it take a WEEK to fall off????
Damn lucky I didn't blow my engine!
I just wanted to say that.
What a PERFECT end to an already hellish month

I'm seriously thinking about garaging the SVX, and getting a POS car. I have now, 191k miles on it, I can't afford to get anything fixed on it.
If you have any advice about my prob, I need your 2 cents!
