    Head gasket
    My head gasket is leaking, my car seems to be running a little hot, does this mean that my gasket is about to blow?; also I'm no longer getting heat

    :(

    If the head gasket leaks period, it is considered to be blown. You have no heat because you have no coolant. Keep driving it and you will have a pretty planter for your flowers on your front lawn.
