Default Not A Good Day For The Sc 400 (help!)

My Wife Was At The Store Today Whaen She Told Me The Check Engine Light Came On . I Asked Her If It Stayed On Or Just Went Back Off . But She Called To Tell Me After She Came Out Of The Store It Wouldnt Start . I Went To The Car And It Starteed But Wouldnt Stay Running ,sounded Like It Was Sucking Air Some So I
Checked All The 22000 Lol Vacuum Lines And Couldnt Find Anything Other Than A Little Canister Thing Up Neear Firewall On Passenger Side If I Took Off The Line The Noise Stopped .anyway It Ran Better But Had A Little Miss In It Also It Seemed Reaally Hot . I Let Her Leave To Go Home And She Called Me 5 Min Later To Say The Car Was Getting Really Hot Temperature Gauge Going Way Up So I Told Her To Pull Over & Shut Off . I Waited Till It Cooled Down And Checked Coolant Level It Was Little Low So I Put Coolant In It And Started It Up ,it Ran But Had A Miss Still Not Real Bad At Idle But When U Gave Gas It Missed . Im Really Unsure What Could Be Going On But Im Worried Could Have Blown Head Gasket Or Something Serious . It Didnt Have Any Coolant In The Oil But Its Missn Pretty Good Now . Anybody Have Any Idea What Could Be Goin On? Also I Noticed When She Turned The Ac On It Made Like A Whining Noise But Worked Fine Thanks Tom
