I have an L series subaru which is leaking a small amount of coolant out of the exhaust and the engine is running hot.
Ok, most people would say head gasket, is there a possibility it is a cracked head or some such thing.

Note, this is not the same silver liberty you have seen, that i posted.
This is one that i am looking at picking up for **cheap***, this is a 1991 L series if you need more specifics i will try to let you know.

I havnt personally seen this, my oldman and i are going to have a look at it prolly tonight or saturday. But even if it did fix it the car would barely do 10,000km's because it will jsut become a bush banger. If not dad and i could get a new HG
