what did you say?
I cannot understand anything you wrote.
Have you ever seen Pulp Fiction? Samuel Jackson had a good line that fits real well here.
If you need help then please take the time to explain your situation clearly so it is easy to understand.

Actually I know very much about 5th Generations.
I could not understand what you wrote as you did not write it in an easy to comprehend manner.
If you are going to be rude then you should find another site to go on.

no problem.
I understand you have overheated the motor which on your v6 can be quite a large problem to deal with.
When you get some time later re-post your problem, keep it simple, and we will do our best to help you.

Ok sir this is my problem, my dashboard needle such as the thermostat and rpm needle snap off because I tried to replace my dash so I never know hows my cars temperture. I WAS DRIVING HOME WHEN SUDDENLY I FELT MY CAR LOSE POWER FROM GAS PEDAL, I PULLED OVER QUICKLY AND RIGHT WHEN I STOPPED MY CAR SHUTS OFF. I OPENED MY HOOD AND I SMELL LIKE BURN LIKE OVER HEAT SMELL AND MY RESERVOIR CAP WAS LETTING OUT ANTIFREEZE SO I JUST THOUGHT IT WAS LOW ON FLUID SO I ADDED WATER ON MY RADIATOR IT TOOK ALMOST HALF GALLON TO FILL SO I LET CAR COOL DOWN THEN I TRIED TO TURN ON AND NOTHING. AS I AM TURNING THE IGNITION I HEAR LIKE IT WANT TO TURN ON ITS LIKE STRAINING ... I DONT THINK IS THE GASKET BECAUSE I DIDNT FIND ANY WATER IN THE OIL SO PLEASE HELP I KNOW the car did over heat for sure I saw smoke but on the side of engine not by radiator hose
Also you can blow a head gasket without the oil and gas mixing so you should not be so certain that you haven't blown the head gasket.
The coolant being low is a problem, does you car have a leak?
Have you seen puddles of green liquid under your car?
If you have not that can also be an indication that your car is burning the coolant which also points towards a blown head gasket.
