Need Help ASAP Possibly headgasket, girlfriend is stuck in Colrado with the RRC - Land Rovers Only

Dr Lobster · 07-19-2008, 01:30 PM

Need help to see how bad this really is. My girlfriend is up in Colorado picking up our son and said our '95 RRC puked coolant all over from the reservoir and came close to overheating. Now the rover can only travel 1-2 blocks before the coolant temp starts to climb rapidly. I only have access to what info she tells me via phone, but her mechanic friend in Colorado Springs is saying it's the headgasket.

Any ideas????

I haven't been on in a while, but I wanted to thank anyone who helps in advance.

LMK if someone has dealt with this before

going to do a search right now

I'm not the expert, but that is a classic symptom for head gasket/ warped head problem.

Ditto that - time for a head gasket/valve job for sure...
