well, my car doesnt start anymore
it starts, rough idle and then i hear belts squealing, and it dies down
it chugs and huffs and then just shuts down.

i spilt oil yesterday inside the hatch, under the carpet, on the driver side, on this little wire connector deal, coming out from the floor of the hatch, drivers side. could this be it?

it worked perfect before that, but i checked my oil level on my dipstick and its low as hell, it was fine the other day! maybe its becasue the car is parked on a slant...
coolant level is fine, no oil in it...

weird, anyone know what that connector is and if that could be my potential problem?
 
The connector your talking about is prolly the one for the fuel pump. Which could definately be a problem.
