Well I was taking my fox back to town yesterday (about 70 miles away) to pick my Daily driver back up and she overheatedon me on the highway...After that it sounded like the batt was dead...wouldn't crank. I got a jump and turned around and came back to work...after it sat for an hour or so she cranked right up. topped the coolant off and left her sit. I was hoping it was just low on coolant, but I don't think so. I just started it up with the cap off to check for bubbles in case of a Head Gasket, but I got no bubbles. About a minute after coolant was shooting out of the radiator (cap off), like a geiser!!! Now I'm going on a thermostat issue I guess...What are you opinions?
