sorry to hear about your opa and your dad man, hope things get better for ya.

hey along the lines of head gaskets mine went out the other day and the cylindars are eating coolant(not much the car still drives decent just the RPM's are low) is it ok to still drive it if i absolutely need to? i drive my truck most of the time since this happened but the wife needs the car every now and then.
