My old motor finally took apart and I carefully exam the cause of my engine overheating. After I opened up the heads, I finally noticed the cause and the result of overheating.
Cause:
* Copper Gasket Sealant block the water passage to the heads
* Unknow Sealant also block the water passage to the heads
* Turbo system - Increase hp put stress to the coolant system
Result:
* Cracked passanger side head (one cylinder)
* Coolant in the chamber and car did not run properly
* Needed a new engine.
Here are some pictures of the cause and effect of overheating:
