Mazda Protege Gas Problem
My Mazda started over heating as I was coming up a hill then it cooled down I put water then went to a friends house for a few hours when I was starting to drive away it made a sound when I pressed the gas it sounded like a scratchy noise with our no warning my car died out I looked and seen my radiator empty after cooling down I put water still wouldn't start I tried jumping her ....nothing. I noticed it leaking water, my oil is clean and she wants to start but nothing...
