Best Answer

It means you positively have a blown head gasket, cracked head, or both. Stop driving this car immediately or you will destroy the engine. There is only one permanent fix and that is to remove the head, have it inspected, and replace the head gasket with a new one. The head may or may not need replacing. A machine shop will verify the condition of the head. If you have to take this car to a shop that is not within a couple miles of your home, I recommend you have it towed to the shop. The more you run this engine the more damage you will have.

These engines do not blow head gaskets. You need to replace the black plastic intake or plenum. They will leak coolant into the combustion chamber. Some roge mechanics will tell you it's head gaskets to get you to pay more money. Remove upper intake, remove spark plugs to get coolant out and replace and fill with coolant.
