the most common problem on this car was head gasket problems i think #4 cylinder failure causes heater core to empty due to compression being pumped thru a bad head gasket. check for white smoke heavy out tail pipe, erratic temp gauge reading and constant loss of coolant. ps check oil fill cap for a milky white sludge g
