Major Engine/ Clutch Problems 1gen n/t

[EagleTalon1991]

ok well i have some major problems and i am hopin for some feed back. I will list them off
1. Coolant boils in the extra container.
2.*******Car stalls when i push in the clutch*****
3. Getting black smoke out of my exhaust prob from the fuel injectors burning to much gas.
4. Says my oil is low but when its not.
5. THE MAJOR THING IS THAT IT FEELS LiKE MY CAR HAS BEEN Taken out beating and told to run cuz it got way slower. Its a non turbo but still it got way slow.

If anyone can help with any of theses esepcailly 2. and 5. i would appreiciate it.
post on here or talk to me on aim IDSMTUN3R or email me [email protected]

if you need further info or pictures jsut hit me up i am glad to talk about it. I just dont wana have to take it to the shop monday and come out broke if i can fix it.

*** Edit: I forgot to add that it does not have a good idol when in neutral jsut sitting htere it idols at 1000 but then drops below and then the oil light turns on then it goes back up. This happens over and over. When its driving it seems to increase alot slower RPM and acceloration wise. Push in the clutch and it will drop all the way to 0 and stall.

ok, heres wut i think. i work at a garage, and i see alot of this come in.

1)the coolant boiling is a result in not having the cylinder compression getting into the coolant causing improper ciculation throughout the system, thus the heat builds up and boils the coolant.

2)im not too sure, but it may be something as simple as a clutch switch. however, it can be more complicated, my sugestion would be to take it to a shop and have them take a clost look at it.

3)this could be from something like a bad fuel pressure regulator, or else it could return back to the coolant leak, which the coolant gets into the exhaust contaminating the O2 sensors and then they cant read how much oxygen is in the system making it run too rich. otherwise it could just be reading an increase in pressure, and resulting in the fuel pressure regulator increasing pressure, thus burning more gas and making the air/fuel ration run too rich.

4)if the gauge reads low, then its not how much oil you have in there, its how much pressure you got in there. if its reading too low i would say u have a leak, but u said that the oil level is fine, so thats not it. my only guess would be u might wanna have ur oil pressure sending unit checked to make sure its still working properly.

5)this one is really easy. it relates back to a common problem with ur car. its a blown head gasket. the blown head gasket results in a powre loss because the cyl that is getting compressed wants to compress the mixture, but the hole in the gasket allows the pressure to leak into the adjacent cylinder. thus resulting in a major lack in power.

it sounds like your main problem would be a blown head gasket. i would start by doin a compression test on all 4 cyl. im almost garaunteeing it to have instead of the typical 150-160, it will have much lower on 2 or more cylinders. start there, but my money would be on the head gasket. if you replace the head gasket, it should take care of numbers 1 and 5, and possibly 3 as well.

let me know how much this helps

Normal compression is 180.
I want to know if you're throwing any CEL's. I betcha are....
