Was it overheated when it did this. Can you fill it back up with antifreeze and see where it comes out? What engine?

How do i tell if i have a cracked head on a 1990 nissan terrano diesel

Have a coolant pressure test done and compression test done. There is a real possibility of a cracked head but you may be lucky with just a warped head and blown gasket.

My 1999 jeep C started leaking fluid somthing broke underneath

Check all fluid levels, especially oil and transmission. You are probably bone dry. After topping off fluids, check to see what and where it is leaking from.

Transmission problems

You will need at the Minimum a Rebuild. Unless the Casing is Cracked and will not hold Compression, Then you will need a New Tranny. Any Transmission Shop can Rebuilt this for you and let you know if it is Cracked or Not. Please Rate My Response! Thanks!
