| Well working for Chrysler and knowing that they were owned by them once and having a few half breeds like the crossfire, I can say that it definitely sounds like water/coolant contamination. Smell the exhuast if it smells sweet then you have a blown head gasket. same idea applies like Bernie said about the sniffer in the rad. cap opening. Check the dip stick if it looks a little rusty not varnish but rusty then you have water in the engine. Better yet tell your Roomie to trade in for an AMERICAN car.

| Good point but if the leak is accuring before the engine reaches op. tmep. them maybe not or if the leak is in a postion not to interact with the combustion chamber like on the 60* GM engines like Hotrod said.
