I go to school but only like 10 seconds and then shuts off a lot of intercepting by communicating joking roughly running and then shuts off.

It sounds like an intake manifold gasket or coolant hose is leaking but this might be two separate problems.

This guide can help us find the coolant leak:

Please make sure the system is full.

Also, we should run the codes to see what comes up and please start a new question for the stalling problem because we only handle one problem per post.
