Well that is what 2 people have described my problem as but i would like to make sure. I have a 94 X with 117k about 3k i had the engine rebuilt. I had recently took my X on a springbreak trip and once i got there smoke was coming from the engine. My altenators ground some how stuck to my heater hose burning a hole in it having it lose tons of coolant. I had it towed back purchase the new heater hose put it back on and topped off the radiator with 50/50 mix. I began to drive it around and about 10 mins. later i all of a sudden lose power and billows of smoke are coming out of the muffler. I look under the car and 2 small holes from the muffler are leaking radiator coolant. So my ?s are is this blown head gaskets? Is their a site/ good manual i can purchase to show me how to replace these? Should i do this myself or have a shop do it for $300? Could my exhaust system be clogged and need to be replaced? thxs for any help
