Well it seems that my water/coolant in the Blazer is playing Houdini. Most noticable after it's been sitting for a while (months). Found out the hard way this morning with steam pouring out, looked down and the temp gauge was at 260! :eek1: Hopefully I didn't blow a HG. :doah: Checked the oil and it's not going in there. I see no leaks, not where it's been parked either. When it's got water in it, it cools just fine. Doesn't really get over 190*, even when it's hot out. Unless there is already a blown HG and it's burning it out, but I don't drive it enough for it to go through that much. Any ideas or suggestions?
 
when you start it up after sitting for few minutes does white smoke pour out?? Exhaust smell sweet.. if it does you have a blown head gasket and its pouring into the cylendars.. nate
