Got my voicemail?
You leave a message? Phones ring off the hook. Two lines aren't enough at my place. What kind of issues you having?

I didn't, I actually intended on PMing you on here.
I called one mechanic and he said it was a radiator issue. I've never had overheating problems before, (although the heating itself never worked great) but Monday the gauge suddenly spiked while driving at about 50mph. I pulled over and steam was coming off the engine and the cooland tank was bubbling. The coolant was low, but not empty. I put some water in the coolant tank, let the engine cool and drove to a gas station where I got some coolant which I mixed with the water in the coolant tank. That didn't seem to help any. Even after letting the engine cool completely, it spikes after less than five minutes of driving. The radiator and both top and bottom hoses are equally hot. When I tried to start the engine with the radiator cap off, cooland shoots up out the top. The fans are working propely and there is no debris on the front of the radiator. So I'm sort of at a loss.
