    There is oil dripping, not only soot, but a little puddle of oil from
    the exhaust pipes where I park. Other than that the car was running
    great until yesterday when a bunch of coolant got blown all over the
    engine. The engine was sluggish after there was a coolant blow out
    which would be expected.

    Today I filled up the radiator with water and idled the engine, water
    gushed from the radiator. Then stopped the engine and idled it again,
    and the coolant system never pressurized after running 20 mins two
    times consecutively. Water never leaked out of the radiator again.
    While idling, the engine never overheated and maintained normal
    operating temperature, the thermostat never opened even with the heat
    blowing for the 20 mins.

    I'm pretty sure it needs a radiator and thermostat because the hoses
    look good. hopefully the water pump is ok. But I have never seen oil
    come out of the tail pipes on any car. It seems to be pure oil with no
    coolant in it. ANY IDEAS......KEV
