Hey guys-
I posted this in the 80-series tech forum:
https://forum.ih8mud.com/80-series-tech/794408-surprise-coolant-leak.html

I pulled into driveway tonight and got out to spewing coolant.
Now my exhaust is billowing white smoke.
I'm not real auto-tech savy but have googled enough to be pretty sure I'm looking at a head gasket issue.
Is there anyone around Raleigh that might be willing to give some support to help my at least diagnose it. I'm a mile off 540 on Leesville.
And then, I need to figure the plan to resolve it.
I was really hoping to drive it Wednesday, as it would be my first event. I'm still planning on coming, but won't be driving the LC.
Thanks!

Moonshine is down for the latest upgrade, but I can swing out there with a coolant test kit and help. PM or email me and we'll hook up.
 
On mine I pulled the plugs and knew I was in trouble. #5 and 6 were wet with toyota red.

Coolant leak does not exactly mean HG issues. If you need another set of eyes/hands, let me know.
