OK, the mechanic just called me, and things could be a lot worse. It seems to be an oil leak that's affecting one of the plugs, causing a misfire. So, car won't go 'splody, or leave me stranded along the highway, it'll just cough a bit now & then until Thursday, when he can fix it. I also have to come up with $250 to fix it, which I might be able to borrow from Mum.
So the upshot is: I can drive it until it gets fixed; it's nothing dangerous or major; I'm not stranded in East Longmeadow. Also, I'm off tomorrow, so that's one less day of driving.
Thanks for all the good wishes! Now I need a little money mojo. ;)
