Default Hesitation/stall

So, I was on my way to work today driving on the highway, when out of nowhere my 93 civic lx (manual) starts to hesitate on me. I got on the shoulder and about 30 seconds later it dies. I try to restart it but no suck luck. Now, here is what I know about the car. I was in need of an oil change and i do burn oil (not much, but enough that it matters). Also, my check engine light goes on whenever i take the car long distances and am going over 75 for like over 15 minutes. I plan on changing the oxygen sensor very soon. But yea, so anyways I am trying to figure out what could be the problem. As far as i remember, all gauges were fine before this happened, and I had gas...only problem was that i was due for an oil change. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated
