Car overheating..... need some help....

stick your hand on the bottom of the resevior and find out if its leaking, or check where you saw the stain and find out where its leaking form. maybe you just need a new resevior.

is a leak really gonna cause it to overheat and the heater to stop working?

Hows the b18 swap coming?

I couldn't find a b18 that was cheap, so I decided on getting a b16. I should have it by the end of the month, and it'll be swapped in by the end of January if all goes according to plan. I'm gonna get the turbo in a few months after I save a bit more money, but my goal will be to have the turbo installed by May or June.

Yes, your not only running out of coolant but your also not getting a good coolant pressure to circulate it right. If im not mistaken most heaters run off a coil heated by the hot coolant coming off the engine, someone correct me if im wrong but im pretty sure im right
