Is your clutch slipping badly? It would smell like burnt asbestos and could smoke alot as well. If you had an antifreeze leak, you would be able to see it everywhere. Good luck and let us know what the problem was.

Blown headgasket you will get coolant in your oil, does the oil on the dipstick look milky? That's usually a headgasket. I'm no expert here, just going off of past experiences with my cars. Good luck finding the issue, I'm leaning towards the clutch. |

Sorry to hear about that bro. Time to have a yard sale or something and scrape up the cash for a new clutch. Hmm... yard sale. Now that's not a bad idea now that I think about it.

I say F*** king cobra clutches. I didn have good luck with mine. I bought a stage one spec. Im just waiting to hear back from anyone if the TOB is any good with the kit. I just bought upper and lower control arms, catback and clutch. Waiting on the catback and its all going in.
