HELP!! Stalling and no restart??
 
Starting 2 days ago my car will stall when I am comming to a stop. Only way to get start is if I pop the clutch when I am slowing down. Once restarted only way to keep the it running is to hold my foot on the gas. If i try to restart it will turnover but will not start. Have checked vaccum lines. Engine will start when cold. Also once started if reved to over 3000 rpm has a real bad metal sound. When idleing at initial start will pull vacuum of -16 mmhg. Exhaust had a strong oil smell and is blue. I have been premixing. Last time I premixed I did not have a complette fill up only put about 6 gallons of gas since I was going to the track, but put the same amount of 2 cycle oil in. Car was fine at the track, until I got about 1 mile from my house. Engine stalls w/ A/C on or off, lights on or off. I have not done a compression check since I can't get the car to a shop on the weekend and can't keep the car running to get to the shop. My thoughts are either too much rich of a premix, or blown apex seal. Does that make sence or is there someother things to check?

Thanks in advance.

You might check your "clutch switch":

Car won't start at all now! I have checked both fuel and spark. Both are good. Have gone and pulled the plugs and made sure it wasn't flooded. More help is needed!!
