Engine Mechanical problem
1986 Oldsmobile Ciera 4 cyl Automatic 92228 miles
i just got a 1986 cutlass ciera.
my mom drove it home, we were told it was idling hard, when we got it home we shut it off. then had a friend come over and check it out, there wasn't enough oil to even cover the dipstick. we put two quarts of oil in and that didn't seem to help. we tried charging the battery with jumpers. that didn't seem to help. our friend took off the cap to the air filter and said gas was being sprayed up. i can't describe the sound im sorry. hopefully this is enough information to make some sort of judgement.
thank you for taking the time to read my question.
