What would cause ur car 2 lose power while idling make a weird noise and smell oil burning pulled over but no overheating only noticed the oil draining out with drain plug on the ground?
Did you just have the oil changed? Perhaps they didn't tighten the drain plug enough or too much an split the washer that seal the plug? Loosing power at idle could be not enough oil to keep the lifters working and therefore the valves were not opening enough. Oil burning was probably oil getting on the exhaust from the leak.
Sounds to me like the engine sustained some internal damage as a result of running without motor oil. If nothing else it probably shortened it's life expectency.
