Ok I have a 1994 celica ST, with 289xxx miles. Supposedly at around the early 200xxx ish miles a engine with 150k miles was swaped in. Doesn't look like it tho.
The other day I was driving home it was about 70deg outside when it's normally been under 50deg everyday here in Missouri. And I noticed the AC wasn't blowing as cold as it does, then she started to overheat she over heated and shut down doin 50mph lost everything, breaks, steering. Got it home it's hard to start and now won't stay running under 1000k rpms. It has a nasty idle when she wants to stay running. And idk what it could be. I just recently changed all this with in the last 1000miles. Radiator, thermostat, fuel filter, spark plugs, spark wires, distributor cap and distributor spark thing. New air filter, did a radiator flush with the new used radiator in it. Also did a 3 part fuel system cleaning in it . Any idea as to why she won't stay running? ***Edit*** I'm sure my collent went out the crack I have in the resivor because there's no cracks or leaks in the radiator. ***Edit2**** Also went from a synthetic blend to a full synthetic with in 300 miles And I'm kinda thinking it's the head gasket.

Time to change the username to iSMOKEengines. Sounds like you popped the head gasket to me, check compression.

Sounds like you popped the head gasket to me, check compression. rofl  Trees you said at first it actually overheated, as in it got really hot and then it shut itself off while you were driving. Is that right? That engine could have some serious trouble from getting that hot. But with the ODBI you should use a paper clip to jump the pins in the data port and count the flashes to get the code that way, like Nics is saying.
