Help Needed 86/na Running Very Rough

I don't have a clue what this is now I was driving and went to exit the interstate car was running fine when all the sudden . The car started running very rough and then it died I bareley got it off the road . What happens is I go to start the car starts up then it sounds very off like it don't even sound like the same car more like a motorcycle or somthing . To keep the car running you have to give it gas and if the rpms go down to 1k the car starts shaking like crazy and then it dies . I barley got the car home I couldn't even get above 30mph and barley made it up hills . I was told it smelled like gas real bad behind it when I was being followed . So I changed out the plugs and no change it just feels like the car is only 1/4 running I have no clue

Its also like its not getting air just a thought .

UPDATE

I took the car around the block no power barley moves . I cam to a stop sign and went to turn the blinker on . I heard it but no light in the dash then as I was making the turn the freakin door ajar light started flashing like the blinker light would . So what in the dash shorted out anybody have any clues and would this be the cause of my problem possibly an ignition problem under the dash ?
