Re: Temp Gauge may have killed my car
Update: Couldnt wait, so I walked the 2 miles to autozone and rented their block tester kit. Looks like the head gaskets are OK, but when I tried to start it again the car wanted to stall and it started smoking behind the timing cover So im going to be doing the water-pump yayyyy, and also the timing belt now...... This is fair warning to those who will ever in the future consider using Bars-Leaks..... it likes to chew up water pump bearings.
