Just purchased the 99-04 Mustang convertible. Have only driven it 3 times since I've had it. Went to drive it the other day got up to the end of the street and heard a loud pow sound, then it started knocking like I threw a rod and all my oil came out. The leak look like it's. In the middle of the engine and its smokes on the passenger side. While looking under the car. Near the front tire, looks like a pan of some kind that has something missing. Please help! Only had this car 2 wks

Any chance you can post a photo? If not, you'll need to have a mechanic look at to see what is involved.

Check for blown fuses. The battery had to be disconnected for the previous repairs, and very often a few fuses will blow from momentary current surges when it is reconnected.
