2wd auto transmission

I have an '89 DL that has a 2 y.o. rebuilt transmission. What is it worth now? The car itself has problems...cracked head coolant leaking into exhaust, but the trans. is good. I want to get rid of it. Thanks kyle

I just started the car after I checked the thermostat, there isn't one. As far as the exhaust goes there is a fair amount of steam or whitish smoke coming from the muffler.

So how do I perform a compression test? Thanks for your time

So this is not feasibly fixable? Is it worth the trouble to fix, or should I look for another vehicle? Thanks for the reply.

HI, We recently replaced the timing belts on this one. everything seemed fine until I drove it home 3 miles away from the spot where we replaced the belts, and now the car overheats. I removed the radiator cap when the car was cold and turned on the engine. After about 20 seconds the water starts gurgling out of the radiator fill. So I'm wondering what the problem could be. Someone said the block was cracked, but I'm not giving up that easily. I would like to check out the thermostat, but I can't find it, and this Haynes repair manual is very sketchy. Where is the thermostat located for this model. It is a four-door sedan. 1.8 89 Subaru DL. Also any other input is appreciated. I can follow instructions but the problem is I don't know exactly what to look for. Thanks for the help kyle
