runs fine then won't, stomp gas to start again?
So the car runs fine cold but when i start to go down the street and it warms up it likes to cut off and then sometimes I have to floor the gas to get it started.. Keep in mind this is fuel injected... vortech supercharger headers injectors etc and when i put coolant in it I doesn't seem to ever fill up and i mean i put like four or five GALLONS of water in it.. I watch the water lower in the radiator after i stop pooring it. Looked at the dip stick and didn't see any water. don't know wat do do really??

Well the coolant has to go somewhere, the only places it could go is:
Oil- cracked head gasket, cracked cylinder
Cylinder- cracked head, cracked head gasket, cracked cylinder
floor boards- blown heater core
ground- blown radiator, cracked hose, bad water pump, cracked block/head.
Dose it smoke? Any signs of water in the exhaust? Is the passenger floorboard wet? Giant puddle of water on the ground? Milky discolored oil? Signs of coolant in the engine bay?
Oil- cracked head gasket, cracked cylinder
Cylinder- cracked head, cracked head gasket, cracked cylinder
floor boards- blown heater core
ground- blown radiator, cracked hose, bad water pump, cracked block/head.

It can't just dissapear and if he doesnt have any water coming out the exhaust or milky oil it isnt a headgasket. Unless its your heater core but it shouldnt quit and not want to crank because they all point to head gasket except no sign of coolant going anywhere honestly im lost sorry man no clue
