You can find these same results by typing "blown head gasket" into the search field. This topic has been discussed to death.

If you don't think you can do the work or don't have the money, try thermagasket. I used the stuff on mine and everything's running great. I know ppl on here are going to reply that this is a horrible idea, but keep in mind my rig is trail only and I have replaced the head gasket 2x in the last year.
