The little 2002 Chevy with the 4 cyl. engine (40,000 miles) has developed a coolant/overheating problem, and I'm wondering if someone on here might offer a suggestion or two as to what is wrong and what might be done to fix it?

The car started running hot all of a sudden. Couldn't seem to find a reason for it at first. Later got to where it wouldn't start at all. Took out a couple of sparkplugs and turned it over. Coolant sprayed out of the spark plug holes!! Is it head gasket? Intake gasket? Or what??

Thanks-I appreciate your time [align=right][/align]

 

Its the head gasket. pretty straight forward job if you're mechanically inclined
