I,m stunned by the quick and descriptive responses. You folks rock.
The water blowing from the exhaust is definitely coolant, green color. I'm in the Portland area, so any help on parts would be a plus. I will have to obtain a pressure tester and perform the test with the cardboard between the head and exhaust. This vehicle has been overheated and repaired twice before i received it. Has an overheating issue usually when climbing hills such as heading west out of the tunnel on 26. I believe the radiator could use a update. Anywhere locally to buy a larger rad?
Thanks for the info to all.
