    problem with car coolant and i need answers fast! Thank you!

    Yup, same deal with mine... when the car was hot the coolant resevoir was completely full and would just blow coolant out... I could hear running water through my dash and my temp guage would soar way up and then back down to about just below half... and then when I shut the car off the temp...

    problem with car coolant and i need answers fast! Thank you!

    yup... if burping the system (what IJ explained) doesnt help the problem, get your head gasket tested before you spend any amounts of money trying to fix your cooling system.
