?head gasket? 200 1983

posted by  someone claiming to be rabid kangaroo on  Thu Feb 1 13:44 CST 2001 [RELATED]

my car cut out on the highway, and shot out sparks from behind. since then it wont start, yet it does crank over. i felt for pressure at the tailpipe while someone cranked it ovre, and gassy smelling air came out. i looked under the hood, and there is a lot of water leaking from the water pump area (never happened before it broke down) and i suspect its the head gasket. the oil is water free, and the coolant is brownish greenish, but it is pretty old, too. it seems that there is no spark either. i took off the plug wire, and put it against a bolt, and it made no spark. if anyone knows whats up, please respond. i currently have no ride to school, and it sucks. thanks alot guys
