Looks like we might have a bad head gasket. I took the LT for a ride and its leaking coolant out the overflow hose from the radiator when it warms up or I give it some gas. I did a search and it looks like bad head gaskets cause this, so I might have get the head shaved and a new gasket installed. I dont think my brother let the air out of the cooling system, can that cause this too? Also, I took off the radiator cap and looked into the radiator and couldnt tell if the coolant was circulating or not, it was full btw, is water supposed to flow out of the head and into the radiator?
