find out the cause... then replace head gasket, water pump & timing belt

no use in trying to use the headgasket sealers in a bottle.

I just did it on my car.

Take your time, get lots of sandwich bags, or quart size bags.

I had trouble getting the bolts off from the brace that holds the intake manifold. Make sure you have a good grip on them with your socket. I got one out but the other rounded over because i didn't have it on straight. I ended up cutting the bracket. The manifold doesn't weight more than about 2-3 pounds.
