it was running fine until i got to school idling high (normal in the morning) then the idle dropped and it started running really bad. i parked and got out to look. there was blue smoke coming out of the exhaust and there was a small puddle of gas where it had seemed to have dripped out of the exhaust. how bad is it? what happened? is it going to blow up in the parking lot?
