Default Need Help*Cooling system problem

I own a Mustang 1995 3.8 L. This morning after driving for 15 min, I had little or no heat. Yet, the engine temp was at Maximum. When I opened the hood, the cooling liquid was coming out from the plastic container as if there was no tomorrow. The last owner told me that he changes the head gasket so.. I dont know if this could be the problem in this case. Anybody would understand what’s going on here. Thanks.

Sounds like you blew a jeadgasket, 94-96 1/2 are NOTORIUS for blowing them, and the way you described your problem, for sure sounds like headgaskets going. Pull out your oil dipstick and smell it and if you smell coolant, then you blew the headgasket.

ps. its a 3.8L not 3.6L
