yup i have to take the responsibility on the coolant leak. engine's a 2.5 with new head gaskets a year ago it's a 99. re the 2.2...............is it really that plug and play? if i have to do any computer mods, that would be over my old head. havent had a chance yet to examine it to see what happened with the coolant. i doubt head gaskets....too sudden. thanks guys.

It had 10,000 on the belt and pump and 500 on the cam seals. i can do the work but hate to go thru or replace the engine unless i'm reasonably sure i have a tranny. i estimate the speed of tow at about 60. guess i'm just venting. thanks for the replys guys. like spaz says, don't ever loan em out. do whatever you have to to provide a ride.

I loaned my 99 soobie to a relative. auto trans, pristine. that person ran it out of coolant on the highway till the engine quit. then towed it 40 miles with wheels on ground. engine will crank but not start. I'm assuming engine and transmission are both toast. any opinions or advice? (on the car) thanks, old geezer.
