again, if the headgasket is gone, the plugs will tell you. the plugs tell all. and if the headgasket is really gone, then you will notice a fluffy white cloud chasing you all the time

hey guys, ok new discovery lol…the car overheats only when i’m going uphill…well pretty much whenever i come to a stop uphill, and then proceed to go uphill, i checked the coolant level, everything is topped off…
