    Early signs of a BHG?

    well i have checked my oil and there seems to be no coolant in there so i belive it is just throwing combustion gases into the coolant system and making it bubble out of the over flow tank like tissimo said as thats what i thought it was doing before. another opinion never hurts thanks for you...
