What happens after a transmission starts smoking, depends on what causes it to smoke. It could run for awhile, and just need new seals, or it could seize up and die.
Overheating from the engine wears down the sensor and will go out when it gets to hot , after awhile it could be completely degraded to where it wont work anymore
Try Putting It Into Gear!!!!!
I dont know what kind of car u are talking about,but it souns like it could be the coolant temp sensor.
The problem could be a dirty sensor or the sender is no good.
a word that starts with e and is related to reading could be education because u get an education sorry if that doesnt help
THE netural Saftey Switch could B bad .
It could have something to do with your oxygen/air flow sensor
If you all of a sudden starts to eat more vegetables and fibers, yes, it can be like that but it changes after awhile.
Change the cam sensor
"hot start" issue. Could be the solenoid, or starter itself.
It could be your coil but then again I would have to see it to know.
