The best thing in the world is when you got a problem and look and seek help when you get it and it brings you to safety.

If there's any luck left in your bag at all, it will 'only' be a blown head gasket. Here's hoping it's no worse.

charleswlkr54, you might be better off that the jerk Wasn't DWI.
That way You can Force him to replace your car. File a Law suit against him. Everyone knows once charged with DUI, they Slap their wrist, set them free to do it again, and make US pay for ALL damages They cause!!

I will say my prayers for you and your family .
I had a Bravada that did that . Needed a intake mainfold gasket . All gm products with V6 get a vlave cover gasket over a certain time . I ended up putting new engine in . If you go to have it fixed skip the dealer and go to your local engine shop they are always cheaper and do better work . God bless and good luck |

Just under $600 - not as bad as it could have been - in my defence, the handles on the pumps here are normally organised petrol 91, petrol 95 diesel so we're used to grabbing the outside handle - the service station was petrol diesel petrol and had so many tags and promotional flyers tied to the pump handles they obscured the labelling on each on; add to that being in a hurry to get home after a long week away and one's on the slippery slope to a late nigh tow job...

Sorry, Edsel, I forgot to mention that that moron didn't have insurance and I had uninsured motorist, so my insurance company went after him. All I could personally have done was take him to small claims court (i wasn't injured by the way-only was doring 30mph and I am a compulsive seat and sholder belt wearer!) for 2 days lost wages. Decided it would cost me more than I could get!!

Oh, thank God! The machanic said that the water pump is shot, the housing came lose and both the pump and seals need replace. He is charging us $100 bucks labor plus parts. The new pump is only $60.00. Not sure what seals and an oil change will cost but it sure will not be the $1000s that I had thought. And a friend of mine was kind enough to help out a little with some cash as he knows our current situation regarding money. So I should have a working car before I need it for chemo next week. All is well. Thank you all.
