I will try to give asmuch info as possible.
I own a 93 L 1.8l fwd fourdoor (4 strikes i know)
I was driving kind of spirited showing my brother the e-brake potentials and while exelarating the engine shut off.
i tried to turn it back on and it tried to but wouldnt turn over.
the brake was very very stiff and only worked a fraction of the strength it usually does and it didnt travel more than and inch no matter how hard i tried.
when trying to give it gas while attempting to start i noticed the gas pedal went limp.
the starter feels strong when i try to start but it doesnt turnover.
and i cant give it gas.
when i went to check what it was i didnt see anything wrong. to my limited knowledge but i noticed the gas cap was not turned all the way and was loose.
also the gas station was a real budget spot i dont know if bad gas would cause this
but i dont think it wouldnt effect brake aswell?
i also had a bad oil leak for a couple of months but it was driving fine just bleeding a bit
checked oil it was low but that bad
i now it seems like i mistreat this car cause i probably do but monies tight i just want to have a good idea about whats wrong so i can decide if i can afford to fix it.
oh last thing car is kept indoors and it was real cold yesterdayso it went from warm to frigid.
