yesterday I put gas in my Buick and it stalled at the station I got it to start and while I was driving home the rpms started to dip really low and she was struggling to idle on her own, she would dip to 200 and I would have to keep on the gas and the brake at lights to keep her idling at 1k rpms I started hearing a ticking noise and when I got home I popped the hood and she would tick really loud then it would stop and she started to hold the idle I was walking back to the door when the ticking started again really loud and she stalled out, I tried to crank her and I could hear the starter click once but she wouldn't turn over, I checked all the vacuum lines, shes not throwing any codes, the battery is new, I checked the oil and there's no shavings so after that I removed the plugs to see if she would spit out any water if the gas was contaminated but the block is completely locked up, I really have no clue what happened and I think it might have been contaminated gas because that's never happened before.
she has 160,000 miles I'm the 2nd owner and I've had her for only 2 months the previous owner was a old guy whose owned it his whole life and it was maintained and always kept stock.
