Default Information about Radiator overheating car?

Alright i was driving around Saturday from 10 am till like 2 pm. Thats when i notice my car was overheating. Between this period i would stop my car and let it cool down, i had to do this a period of 5 times until i got home. So Sunday i went for gas. I went to teh gas station which is like a 5 mins drive away. And my car started over heating again. Man what the **** would be the problem. Like it overheats really fast. A friend of mine said it could be me lacking Antifrezze is dat the problem. If so need to go to AutoZone rite quick. Can someone please tell me what's the problem. Thanks.

Alex

P.S. Sorry so long tried to get ever detail in there. O BTW green liquid was spooling from whte/cream cotainer by radiator.

you have air in your system somewhere. which means, you have a leak. I had the same problem until I changed the head gasket out. Just do that, it will be ok. Also, lose the stunta talk.

the head gasket is located under the head. Dont do it your self if you know nothing about cars. While it is easy to do, it isnt something you want to **** up. Also dont keep driving your car because you could warp the head, which means that you will have to have it milled, and if its warped bad enough you should have it line bored.
