So,on my way to Wal-Mart,before last intersection,I accselerated hard and engine lost power just right after and stalled.White smoke from under a hood and exhaust.I opened the hood and looked at coolant expantion tank.It was full of coolant and ready to blow.So,I left my car for awhile.When I was back I found that tank is empty.I filled it with almost 3l of water,silly believed that my car will start,tuned it on.2 or 3 cylinders started for awhile and engine stalled.I got some liquid from exhaust and full expation tank again.I towed my Saab home and tried turned to messure compretion.It hardly turns now.
Just half year before I had some coolant leak around bolt#10.I retorqued all bolts and leak was gone.
How bad it can be and where do I start? Just in case:can I use old bolts for new head gasket?Any ideas welcome.
