The find the hiss, if you are hooked up to #1 and hear the hiss in #2's plug hole that's probably the head gasket. If the radiator bubbles air, it could still be the head gasket or a crack. Good luck They say there are no such thing as a stupid question. They say there is always the exception that proves the rule. Don't be the exception.
