My car has began to run hot under the hood and the thermostat line rises over the H. When I turn the heat on it blows out only cold and I can smell something burning when I drive and I think it's the antifreeze can you tell me what you think the problem could be so I can get it repaired immediately because I can't drive it while it's in that condition.
