coolent coming out the open dump

[93blacktsi]

ok i was on the highway the other day and seen my temps rising, i stopped and lookd for leaks.at this point i found my rad was shot, i changed it and started to add coolent and notice it pouring out my open dump tube.i tried to start the car and it would just crank.after a while it started and it just poured coolent out what looked like oil right out the open dump.checked the oil looked a lil milky and there was some white build up in the coolant system.i was told it could be the turbo or the hg.any ideas ??

Do a leak down test to check the hg. if the leak down test is fine look at the turbo as the problem. with that much coolant though im going to guess hg

i agree check head gasket first then go to the turbo

I'd check the head gasket as well. Fill the radiator up and crank the car. If you see coolant shoot out then you can chalk it up as the gasket.

i dont even have to crank the car to get it leak coolent.it should no sings of mixing till the car started.as of now i still have to try to get the car towed to my friends house to rip it apart.

well the gasket was blown out in 3 places and the head was cracked.luckily a buddy had a head fresh back from the machine shop with bronze guides, new seals, some arp headstuds, and a cometic gasket.best part is all the parts only cost 125 and the car should be up and running today
