Hey thanks for looking well the problem that i am having is that the engine heats up really fast like gets to normal opearting temp in about 2 mintues from starting it and will usally stop at about the N-O on the temp gauge and the cooling system will turn on now and keep it around there still or maybe a little lower but what the problem is that i think the temp gauge is wrong because for one the oil cap has changed colors from black to white and it looks like the writing on the cap is like melting off so not too sure the other thing with the engine and i have been told this could be the intake gasket or head gasket but i dont think it is that i still have yet to see white exhaust coming out dont know if that always happens or not with a head gasket but after driving it lets say 20 mintues or so usually at a slow speed like around the 20-45 mph range and then i will stop and a light and the car will slowly die it will drop down to about 500 rpm and try to stay running as long as it can but usually thats only about 10 seconds and it will die and if i try and restart it it will turn over and restart start at 1000 rpm but then just die right away again but if i wait lets say about a mintue or two and start is up again and i start moving again but i drove about an hour and a half last week all highway so fast 70-80 and then i got into a parking lot and it died and i couldnt get it to stay running for long then 5 seconds so i came back to it 2 hours or so later and it started and drove all the way back not really sure what to do i am also having a problem with my blinkers and my speedo someone told me it might be the computer ????? Also if this helps i just tryed when i got home just to leave it running in my driveway for about 10 -15 mintues to see if it would die and it did not even driving it also up by where the spark plug wires go in there is oil in the grove right there not alot but it is really think and very dark very very dark and yesterday i noticed that one of the spark plug wires were up a little bit pushed it back down and it sounded like there was fulid in the spark plug housing not sure though couldnt see could it just be oil on the spark plugs causing all these problems also no check engine night has showed up once and the other problem why i think its the computer is when i was driving down the highway going about 70 i heard a loud noise and my battery light is like always on but it shut off and all of the light in and outside of my car started to blink not on and off just got dim and then bright again and then when my battery light would turn back on it would stop please please help not sure what to do dont want to get rid of it might have to make it my project car though :thankyou:
