At this point I either want to sell it or pay someone to fix it. I dont want to pay to get it towed. I have to go to work and wont be back til late eve. I can send pics and more details via email to whoever wants to see it tomorrow. doktorgonzo88 yahoo is mine. And thanks to all of you who tried to help me out.

I know it doesnt make sense thats why im goin nuts ! The radiator was full of coolant last week. Wasnt serviced or drained. I didnt look in there since. And yes the overflow was overly full when I was broke down. The level went down when I was looking in there. My friend just told me today it smelled a lil of gas in the overflow. So Im pretty sure the head gasket is messed up. Just trying to figure out if the whole engine is shot. And if its even worth towing to a mechanic. I can get the compressing test done tomorrow. Miles 127000. Had car for 10 months. Went to jiffylube a month ago, 800 miles since. Ill have to wait til morning to look for DOHC/SOHC. Im in the south side 15203.

It turned over but wouldnt start without a jump.

Im not 100% sure on the 2.5 SOHC. I just dont understand how it started up just fine, let it run for under a minute, and didnt drive it. Then today its not starting. Thanks for your replies.

Yesterday my car overheated. My heater started blowing cold air, and I looked down and the gauge was beyond the H/red zone. I got towed home. When I tried to start the car last night, it started fine. So I was thinking Id need a coolant flush and either a waterpump or thermostat. Today it wouldnt start and had to be jumped. It didnt sound good when it started and alot of white smoke came out the tailpipe. And now it wont start again without being jumped. (car has new starter, battery, and alternator) The diagnostic tester gave errors P0302, P0304, P0303. Do you think I will have to have the engine replaced? Why would I need jumped to start it? Thank you, any help is appreciated.
