97' Dodge Neon w/ 113,000 miles on it. dies and or stutters when you let off the gas and a pop when it started, knocks, white smoke from exhaust, steam from behind motor, and bubbles in the radiator. blown head gasket IMO :(
timing belt looks fine but slightly loose but not bad
im going to tow it to my house and take it apart for inspection. hopefully it didnt hydrolock cause i dont want to take the bottom end apart if i can help it :\ well see, after that, im going to tow it to my school so i can put it back together in class :D

do a compression test, I am leaning towards, 90% chance of blown head gasket, from the symptons and neons are well known for blown head gaskets.-Eric<br /><a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/id/mustangeater82\" target=\"_blank\">2000 NBM V6 Camaro 5-speed</a> T-top <i>converted</i><br /><b>14.467@95.45mph</b> <i>$0 in mods</i><br /><i>The member formerly known as MustangEater8251</i>

i plan on replacing the top end anyways because of the mileage and plus it has been ticking/knocking for months now. never tought about a blown gasket tell now. just figured i was flotting a lifter or something like that you know
