stalling V70-XC70 1998

i was driving in traffic and my car stalled...
i was going around a sharp curve at the time, took my foot off the accelerator and it just died. i shifted into neutral and started the car and kept driving. then it happened again, i started and kept driving. it happened a third time and the car became harder to start... i went through this a few more times until it just wouldn't start. i did notice some smoke coming from the exhaust and there was an unusual odour also. i got the car towed home and now it seems to be starting and idling fine--i decided not to take it out for a test drive... any ideas?
