Re: CRACKED BLOCK????

Most likely it is a blown head gasket. Do you have white exhaust or water dripping out the tail pipe? Do a compression check and looosing anti freeze into the block is a sure sign of either a gasket or cracked block. These blocks are durable and thats why I would guess a head gasket.

look in your radiator and see if there's oil floating in the coolant.
