    sounds like coolant flush, new pulley, new water pump at the very least.

    He always does...even at my place. Maybe we need to empty all the booze into pop bottles to throw him off

    You forgot that we can piss into the beer bottles to simulate the correct color beverage.

    OP...I'd be sorry for off tracking your topic...but I'm laughing too hard.

    Your not the only one.

    To try and keep this in the same zip code...sounds like you've got teh case of the dexlove. Remove the supercharger belt and start it...if the sound goes away then you know for sure it is a pulley related to the blower.

    What the hell is going on in here?

    Brown sludge, pee in beer bottles, bad pumps...wtf

    Matt you forgot to mention that he should check his thermostat, if it ain't opening, its backing up and could damage the water pump as well as not cool. He should just replace it anyways for the $2 it costs

    If the coolant elbow is leaking... I'd think that's a thing that needs to be fixed.

    I don't think this is one of those cases where you tell the OP to go get this and go get that, put it in and you're good to go... Take it to a mechanic, explain what is going on, mention the plastic elbow needing to be replaced, get an honest quote.
    If you don't like those numbers they give you, then start rolling up your sleeves and prepare to get dirty and possibly mess it up even more than it already is if you have no mechanical inclination at all.
