Hi guys,I think i messed up on my last post.
Car runs cool cannot find any leaks.but the last two weeks i had to add some coolent in the raditator.Car started with a small bang that i never heard before,plus a puff of white smoke from the tail pipe.Made the 10 mile trip back home with no problem.After an hour or so tryed to start the car but nothing,no start or crank.Pulled the starter out and found the front snout housing had broken off.Marked the flywheel and using a big screwdriver rotated the flywheel and found no broken teeth.Installed another starter and first crank broke the snout housing right off again.Any hints.

thank you
sarge
