Re: Overheating Problem???????
well its obvious the headgasket blew, prolly from overheating caused by either low coolant, bad water pump, air in the system, defective fan or fan switch, ect sensor, etc. when you have the gasket replaced, maake sure you have the head checked because it might be warped and changing the gasket wont help.

Overheating or loss of coolant, heater blowing cold
