I am having a problem with over heating.I sometimes smell anti freeze and have noticed coolant coming out the tail pipe.I belive the problrm is the head gasket but do not see any sign in the oil.

Hi there,

Coolant in the oil will depending on where the combustion leak is and how bad it is. If the leak is direct into the combustion chamber, the coolant will turn to steam and exit with the exhaust, little if any will find it's way into the sump.
