Overheating, Almost...........!!!

holy moli, i thought i was gonna have to die or something!! Iwas goin to a friend house today, got on the interstate when all of a sudden my car just raced up to the boiling point(almost), my add coolant light /buzzer started goin off!! i was like WTF, pulled over at the nearest reststop to check the coolant and it was empty. I put more in just to get off the next exit still the same add coolant went off again!! so i stopped to check uder the hood guessing some how i blow the engine AF pouring out the bottom!! welp to make a long story short, it ended up that the AF hose by the oil pressure gauge wire was cracked and leaking all over!! wow i replaced the hose, fine now!!

thanx god

You've learned a valuable lesson my friend.. Oil and ruber hoses do not mix.. that hose has been the culprit of many a foomed motor because it sits under the oil filter and gets exposed to lots of oil over the years causing it to degrade and rupture!!!
