kinda sounds like you popped the head gasket is there coolant in your oil does the oil look like chocolate milk does it smoke (constantly)

Have you distinguished whether the engine is leaking or burning coolant?

Agreed.

Check your oil...
Check your coolant...
Check your compression...

yeah i checked oil its good and no smoking going to check compression tomorrrow tho is there any thing else it could possibly be

iliv2xlr8

Thermostat could be stuck closed.

Warm engine up and see if all coolant lines get warm. Put heater on hot, and check those lines also. If they do, then you at least know that coolant is flowing.

When you add coolant, be sure to add a 50/50 mixture. Too rich on antifreeze will cause your car to overheat. I would also check your mixture with the a floating tool to make sure it's good.

When is the last time you flushed your cooling system?

lilshady6796

last time it was flushed is when i did head gasket change about 2 months ago yes i use 50\5o mixture

iliv2xlr8

What's that? Head gasket two months ago?......

Definitely check your compression. Hope it's just a cooling issue, and not engine related.

Obviously, compression in cylinders 2 and 3 is low. Blown head gasket is likely.

lilshady6796

na its been like that ever since it was changed and if it was blown it would be way lower cuz before i changed it the **** was real low

How old is your water pump? Check for an external leak. However, a seal could have released internally and the pump efficiency went out the window.

-Change thermostat
-Flush system with Prestone radiator flush.
-Refill with fresh 50/50 mix
-Check or replace water pump

Cooling systems are fairly easy. If it's not an internal engine issue, than it should be relatively easy to diagnose.

Those numbers really suggest a blown headgasket. I'd say the head and/or block deck surface is warped.

POE

im thinking if u SAY it doesnt burn coolant and isnt leaking on the ground water pump or needs a good burp, to get any air out.
