Thanks guys for your responses.. The miles are 165k.. If I cooked the engine could I start it up again after the car sits for a while..What about a clogged radiator, since when I pushed on the hose there were no bubble coming up in the coolant being added to the car? This is strange also, when I'm driving the car will die and before it dies, when I hit the gas pedal there is no power and the car putt, putts and then dies and I can't get it to start. I wait about 2 hours and I can drive it only a short distance before it will die again...This happened the other day while driving it. The temp got to about half and maybe a tad over half. I was driving for about 25 miles. When I came to a stop or idle the car wanted to stall out. Then it just died. When I open up the hood the left side of the engine was smoking and you could feel the vibrations and hear the boiling of the radiator in the reserve container.

I have a 1995 Subaru Legacy that probably has a head gasket problem since I'm seeing the water level in the reserve tank to be empty every morning. I've already was stranded once with the car overheating, but after a few hours of sitting the car started right up but eventually got hot again..I've already installed the Moroso blue bottle sealer for head gasket leaks and changed the thermostat. I'm not getting any heat coming out in the car and also when putting in coolant noticed the collant wasn't going down into the engine after a while. It stopped bubbling and when I squeezed the hose connected to the radiator I got no air bubble to push the coolant sitting in my container on top of the radiator..Need some help to help troubleshoot...
