Default 93 blazer nightmare

I was on my way to work when my 93 blazer stalled out at about 60 miles and hour i coasted to a stop and attempted to restart however no luck and if i continue to try i get a faint burning smell. Some one please help me this is my only vehicle and i am broke with a newborn and no transportation to work. ps all new plugs , wires and distributor

Is it possible that there is an issue with the timing chain? Is this something that I could fix myself? Thanks for the help.

CHECK YOUR OIL DIPSTICK, for coolant or the smell of coolant the same thing happened to me with mine after one month of have mine my intake manifold gaskets blew out and it died the same way the gaskets only cost i think i paid 30 bucks for the gasket set for mine but mine is an 01 yours should be a lil cheaper and it is something you can do check the tech articles it just came up again so it should still be fresh on the list it will take you step by step

oh something i forgot to put in i think someone said timing i think it might be that as well you coulda skipped a tooth on the gear with the chain and bent some valves in the head do a compression check as well.
