could be a blown coolant seal not shure when the car is cooled down take the radiator cap off and turn on the car if you see bubbles coming up but constantly start saving up for a motor its most likely a blown coolant seal other way is let the car cool down turn on the car with the radiator cap on if the radiator hose gets really tight all of a sudden thats another sign of a blown motor...

check your oil, if it has a nice brown soupy look to it, it's a seal gone bad and you need a rebuild.
