i'll buy the car from you for $300

i think it might be the head gasket.

check water pump, and head gasket.

how to get the check engine light. buy a jumper the ecu is on the passanger side next to the glove box.

you dont need a jumper, you can use a paperclip to connect the 2 connections. i'll see if i cant find the CEL codes
