It's weird!! My last post said I blown the headgasket with coolant spaying out my head. Now, it's good??? How is that possible?? Did it reseal itself??? I restarted after the weekend and it ran fine??? I think I'm gonna get it replaced anyways just incase. One of my 370cc injectors stopped working, than I took it out and swapped it to another fuel injector and now they all work.. This is a weird car, I just don't get this car!! Do u guys have similar problems?

where was it "spraying" from?

have u boosted it alot yet to know if its blown? usually will push coolant into overflow cuz it gets air into the cooling system, closes the thermostat and overheats in result.

Coolant was spraying out of my exhaust mani from the headgasket. I'm currently still boosing at 7. But it did'int overheat or did'int have time too becuz I caught it when it started.

replace that gasket. it could have aquired some damage from the coolant spraying everywhere. and could let loose spraying again if the time is allowed.

replace the gasket as the cost of gasket doesnt come close to the cost of an engine
