    The other day, my car caught fire (2006 base) it wasn't a big fire and the car wasn't even running hot. The ignition wires, and a part of the oil dip stick line was damaged, I have replaced the wires and plugs and the car runs but makes a loud screaming sound and dies when put into gear? Also there seems to be oil on the lower part of the motor but when I checked it, it was fine. I'm left with a few questions. 1) Any remote idea as to why the car caught fire? 2) Why won't the car run if everything that was damaged is replaced 3) Where could the oil be coming from? Any help would be great

    You say oil dipstick .. trans oil or engine oil? I've seen a pcv get installed wrong or go bad and cause something similar.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.
