Car overheated other day and it was leaking, it is leaking out of the plastic white looking coolant low to full tank it has a whole right at the top, not sure if the hole is plugged on other celicas but it's leaking from there, the fans are not kicking on either everything else is fine, please show me pic of where the fan sensors are so I can get them from the junk yard

This Is the way mine is acting. The exhaust gas leaks from the head gasket into the coolant and over-pressurizing the radiator system and blowing coolant off out of the overflow hole.
There is no coolant on the spark plugs, and only small traces of oil in the radiator, it only loses 1 quart a week, and really isn't that bad unless you spin the motor up real hard. There is a test that can prove if you have exhaust gasses in the coolant, search it on YouTube. If your thermostat, waterpump, and fans are working right then you probably do need a head gasket. I'm buying a used head so I can send it t the machine shop to be worked on ahead of time and be ready to put on before I take the old one apart. If you try to replace the gasket without resurfacing the head it won't be right. It's about $135 for a head and maybe another $100 for the machine shop This post has been edited by VavAlephVav: Jun 10, 2014 - 12:08 PM -------------------- Bust a Deal; Face the Wheel.
