Re: 01 overheating

Do not drive this van until a thorough inspection has been done.

Sounds like a blown head or intake manifold gasket.

Look closely for coolant leaks.

Does the oil have a pale brown color?

Check the bottom of the oil filler cap to see.

Once the coolant has seeped into the oil it doesn't take long to strip the lubricant from the crankshaft bearings and journals.
