Ok so I have a 1999 Ford Taurus and two weeks ago it blew a head gasket but it was fixed. However yesterday I was driving the car and it has a stutter when I stop at the red light or something like that. Also When I am driving it steady it drives fine but when I stop all of the coolant comes out. It only does this when I am driving long distances. Plesae help! Anyone know what it could be~!

It sounds like the mechanics who changed head gaskets forgot to tighten a hose when they changed gaskets.

Take it back to them for free repair.

Hopefully its nothing drastic! Only thing is the mechanic was my boyfriend and now he is out of town for two weeks! So is it a simple fix maybe I could do or would it do alot of damage if I continue to drive and just keep filling with water? Is the hose tightening going to be an expensive repair?
