Ok...I went to leave for school this morning, got in my car and cranked it. I noticed some sort of noise that sounded like it could be my belt squeaking really bad, which had never happened b4. I raised my hood and looked around (w/ my car still running). After a while it began smelling hot and then I saw some smoke coming up. HOLY S*** my car's dying...so I try turning it off. I turned it completely off and took the key out of the ignition. The car just keeps trying to crank itself. By now I'm kinda freaking out. I figured out my starter wasa stuck, so I pulled my battery cable off and that stopped it, but as soon as I touched the cable back to the terminal it starts trying to crank itself again. Finally I just called my dad to get it fixed and drove my Bronco to school. I may have to get a new starter. I'll keep you guys posted on it and if I ever get it fixed and can get to a camera, I'll get some pics up of the stuff I've done to it over the last few months.
