hello! I have a 1993 850 GLT 2.0 and on the way back from camping with the wife and kids last week the car started to run a bit hot. So i pulled over and there was no coolant in the expansion tank! So we waited around till it cooled down and I topped it up and carried on. 10 miles later the same happened again but I was on the M1 so I couldn't stop. The temp gauge was just over half so I didn't worry too much. then about a mile later there was a knocking sound coming from the engine on acceleration (HEAD GASKET?). so I then pulled over and the oil was very hot and smoking. had the car towed home and now wont even turn over. I wondered whether i had warped the head or something but i find this hard to believe as these cars are so tough. I had a little fiat when i was 17 and drove that for weeks with a blown head gasket. ANY IDEAS?
