    Speaking from experience that sounds 100% like a blown HG. Had that happen on my previous car.

    Easy fix.

    If your mechanically inclined enough, grab a cylinder leak tester and pop the rad cap. You more than likely will be able to see bubbles coming from the coolant if its a head gasket failure to your water jackets.
