there's a couple things that could cause that. You may have a head gasket issue, a cracked head issue or a cracked block issue. Either one is definitely not good. That'll have to be repaired before getting the car started. My experience with those cars is to just replace the engine. If it's the head gasket you're O.K. but if not get a used engine from a scrap yard that comes with a warranty and install it. The car should start then. If not you'll have to confirm spark, air, and fuel. Good luck
