There is a smaller chance of head bolts being loose pre 1997. But a torque check would be informative.
Miles on vehicle?
What oil has been used? change interval? miles/year? city or highway miles?
Your engine has gear clamps on the coolant hoses and these loose clamping pressure as the rubber yields under the clamps. Tighten all that you can find and also under the TB cover. Follow the hoses. There are two small coolant hoses at the TB itself. At the reservoir as well.
You may have stuck piston rings and that can typically be fixed up with chemicals.
