1. Check your o2 sensors.
2. Milkshake looking coolant? Check your transmission fluid and make sure its not mixing with the coolant.

i assume the check engine light is on. Take it to autozone and have them pull the code. Search the code that you are given. 02 sensor would be my bet.

The red clay stuff sounds like it might be silicate gel from a stop leak type product. How does your oil and your coolant and tranny fluids look?
