Very Important Advice Needed!!

Wasssup fellas, it's been a while. I am still experiencing problems with my cooling system if you haven't read by now, it's losing coolant somewhere but not anywhere visible. So needless to say I am lost, so my question to you guys is this..Should I keep my car with 185k miles on her leaking coolant (somewhere) that I have had forever and try to " work things out with her" lol or just sell her and maybe find another. I love this car and hate to see it go but don't know how much I would end up pouring into it. TIA guys nice hearin from u again.

Jason G.

well if you dont find the leak and you have some extra money to buy another car i would sell it and get one just like it if you like it that much. or you can find the leak but 185k miles is kinda high...its totally up to you dont let us decide for you

Just me but i love my car and have regreted selling my 3rd gen since i did it so i would say keep it and do what you have to to get her back to good running condition. But as was said dont let us make up your mind your the one that has to live with the dicecion so go with what you really want.

I had a chance just recently to buy an LS1, fiance even gave me the go ahead. But I just couldnt bring myself to put a 'For Sale' sign on my car. I put waaaaayyy to much blood, sweat and tears (little bit of $$ too ) into it that I wouldnt even let it go for an LS1. Later on I might go :banghead: but oh well, I love my car.

Just my .02. What does your car mean to you?

If there isnt a visible leak..check symptoms for crackedhead. This is from persoanl experience as everyone knows. My engine gave up right at 191k miles. I had to drop in another engine, i now have 80k..

Well she's gone fellas I sold her yesterday. I will still get on here every now and then to hear how your cars are going. I WILL own a piece of American Muscle again 1 day. Thanks for the comments guys.. Oh by the way I got 1,850 for it with 185k miles and possibly a cracked head is that a good sell ? I will be on the market for an Lt1 or SS soon!!
