My daughter was driving her camero when out of no where, she put on the brakes to stop and the engine went dead. It was smoking and all fluids were gone. We replaced the water pump, thermostat and filled all fluids. We tried to drive it again and we needed to give it gas to keep it running. When we took the air filter out, it was a little better, enough to get it 1/2 mile down the street back home


Any thoughts or input?
Thank you
Sue
