My car as been leaking oil for a few years, just enough that I add a quart once a month. 2 months ago it started over heating. We went ahead ad redid the head gaskets and water pump (timing belt was good). We put the car back together and it is still overheating- nowhere as bad, but still not gonna cut it. There was some coolant spray on the passenger side of the block so we went ahead and replaced the radiator cap, thermostat, and re did the passenger head. We used the same gasket because things cost money, and I am poor. Got a wee bit better but it isn't there yet. The car does great till either you hit 80 mph, or you drive it for about 25 solid minutes, then the temperature rises, and over heats within about 3 minutes. The gasket test says my car is fine, but it said that the first time (we then took it to a mechanic and he said it was the gasket-and when we took it apart there was noticeable warpage). Any thoughts you have would be great.
