Thanks everyone. As soon as i can buy a basin to catch the coolant, ill take the head off and see what happened. Really dont want that stuff getting into the street. Shes sitting i n the driveway waiting patiently for open heart surgery. Friend of mine drove me home and remarked about how my tires looked so new... told him yeah, saved up for 3 months to get 2 tires and an alignment, and she eats a piston. He laughed and asked when that happened, i replied, on my way home from the alignmemt shop. Ha!
