I have a 95 conti and I once had the oil changed at a local shop. About 3 hours later, while my sister was driving the car died out. After i checked the car I found that there wasn't any oil in it. However, later I was told that the car was equipped with a switch that would kill the car before something happened. After spending money at the dealership, -for nothing, I was told that i needed to check the fuel induction system. Before that, I was diagonsed with a 1132 trouble code. The car starts up but it is extremely erratic,misses terribly, and cuts off. I don't know what to do and I am seeking anytype of advice that can help me. I don't know where to start since the dealership ripped me off without so much as an explanation.:banghead:

You can get more specific information on Code 1132 here. (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Lack+Of+HO2S11+Switches+-+Sensor+Indicates+Rich&btnG=Google+Search)
Are there any other codes present with the CEL? It seems to me that there may be a more serious problem causing the 1132 code.
I wasn't aware of any switch that'll shut down your engine when the oil was removed either. Where'd the oil go anyway? If this engine was ruined by an oil change shop not securing a drain plug or filter, their liable -- miracle switch or not.
Another thing I don't understand, why was the car returned to you from a dealership not running?
With the generalization of 'it runs eratically then dies' there's alot of systems that need to be checked, most of which are throwing codes at the CEL. Check your OBDii scanner again to see what else is there. I'm pretty sure your 1995 is fully OBDii compliant, I know the TC's in 1995 are.
I know that wasn't much help, but there's more than meets the eye with this one.
