Default What Should I Do??????

I bought a CRX (88 DX) for 1900....everything is perfect in this car except for its missing the rear hatch cover....anyways....I was driving down the freeway at about 80mph, the car shut off my temp gage was well above RED, and it wouldnt start......i took it in for a diagnostic...ive got radiator coolent in my cylinders, now most likely my head has a crack in it right??? or could it just be the gasket? or is it a cracked block? fucked up valves? It could be any of these??? should i rip the head out and look???? IM SO PISSED, help me?

i dont check often email me if you can....EYEHATEMYSQUITOS@HOTMAIL.COM

Sounds like you have a bad head. I have an SI head (about 1000 miles on it) and Si intake if your interesed. You would have to do DPFI to MPFI if your interesed in it.

dx is dual point fuel injection. si is multi point fuel injection u have to convert the dx to mpfi for the head to work. be careful doing this is if ur not mechanically inclined my friend did it without knowing what he was doin and screwed up his car for good. now he needs a new engine harness. not cheap!
