Engine Cooling problem
1985 GMC S15 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

engine was overheating, we thought radiator had a leak, put leak product in radiator, truck started, but after going a few blocks it started belching smoke. We then found out radiator fluid was mixing with engine oil. Why? How do I repair this?

Chances are you either have a bad head gasket, or the intake is leaking. You can check compression to test the compression for a head gasket.
