SOURCE: 1998 Buick Century- Service Engine Light Soon came on

i had a simaler problem(still having problems but not this one anymore) i had a local mech. look at it and he said it must be a vacume leak,but it stumped him as it would shut down then u pull over and wait a min. and it would start and run fine for a few miles or days...i followed the "air/vacume" line off the pcv vale i think to the back of my engine near firewall and on the intake right below the coilpack was a hose loose that came out of a rubber t shaped connection,i put it back in and have never had this problem again...im on a new problem now..lol...hope this helps you out...good luck to all buick owners..:)

Service engine soon has nothing to do with service or maintenance . Emission's OBD 2 engine managment system . Light on ! DTC'S - diagnostic trouble codes stored . Your don't know THAT ! Your best bet , take it to the dealer .

My town car wont start after my oil filter was loose and oil leaked out

You broke it. Driving with the oil light on was VERY poor judgement. A red light means "STOP". You probably ran the engine without oil and the main/rod bearings started overheating and destroying themselves (the screeching you heard). Starting up again and continuing to drive without oil finished the destruction. It doesn't matter how much oil you put in it now, the crankshaft is frozen in position, and the starter cannot turn the engine over.
Sorry, you need another engine.

When I turn the key, I can hear the engine trying to start, but nothing happens. This started yesterday, I was driving home on the interstate when my car suddenly just decelerated and stopped. I couldn't...

the engine did not die because of a defective starter. either some mechanical or electrical component has gone awry, or you ran out of gas. putting a new battery and/or starter in a car with a dead engine will not cause the engine to start.

you need to have someone with some mechanical knowledge take an actual look at it. someone over the internet cannot diagnose nor divine which of the many components has malfunctioned causing the car to quit.
