Re:over heating????vanishing coolant???
check the compression. and do a leakdown test. that'll tell you if the HG is blown. if not check for leaks anywhere in the cooling system. and make sure your T-stat is in working order.

Buy a compression tester first. It's worth the 50 bucks and you will be able to tell if the hg is going for sure.
