A few weeks back i went to my mechanic and had him look at the truck and he told me that the head gasket is leaking and he put some sealer on it to hold it off but eventually itll be to where i need to replace the head gasket..
so today i go outside and see my truck leaking coolant.. it almost looks like oil
i uploaded a video .. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpDGUvTcY2c

and i have 2 pictures .. if it helps .. anyone know what going on here?

and on top of that my fuel pump is going.. ill start it up and itll hesitate to start and once it starts sometimes itll stall and if im at a red light and it goes green and i go itll feel like its gonna stall

 

Looks like crappy coolant for sure, but I would say that is your LIM gasket leaking.

 

chances are when the coolant is running off its picking up some oil residue on the motor elsewhere so thats likely why you have a sheen on the fluid from oil... have fun taking the tank off heh.

 

crappy ? yes it is .. i used it when i had no more coolant my brother had a container and gave it to me .. any idea how much a headgasket repair and a fuel pump repair costs?

my mechanic is the best he charges me great prices thank god so if u have a number for a repair let me know cause if its to much im just gonna look into a new car

 

I highly doubt you have a head gasket problem as I stated already. I think it is your lower intake manifold gaskets.

As far as prices, I can tell you what I would pay to fix both problems on my own vehicle, but it would only cover the parts.

 

IF u go and do a head gasket - i guesstimate (cuz i don't live anywhere near you and i'm just viewing a price generally) the gasket kit alone is worth around the $350+ mark depending on the deal your source will give you/gets...

I'd have a look @ the LIM gasket - FEL-PRO Part # MS98002T Perma Dry Plus set - probably around the 80-120 mark for it and u get: Valve cover gskts. & valve cover grommets incl.; Upper set incl. int. manifold gskts. incl.




Edit: yes this kit is likely on the top of the cost scale for them but you deffinately get what you pay for and for something like the LIM... you don't wanna cheap out and have this same BS leak again so stuff the extra cost on the initial purchase and get the GOOD set with a quality name like felpro behind it.

Fuel pump: your looking @ approx $250-700 for the part alone... AGAIN this is an estimate and i'm not 100% sure how they charge around your area compared to my source for pricing. tbh if your gonna look @ doing this its not that difficult of a job - yes it can be and i JUST changed my tank today so the steps are exactly the same except u swap the pump instead of the tank... if you have the skid plate covering your tank it will be 6 more bolts and some extra screwin around to remove/replace it but otherwise the tank held up by 2 bolts, a vent line @ the front near the drivers door, the filler tube, & a vent tube beside it. the pump is held in with a clip in ring, 3 fuel lines, and 2 electrical connections... remove all of that and the pump will spring up and out slightly so you can remove it with ease. This is my suggestion if your looking for a cheap fix - get one from a junk yard - it cost me for my cav $125 @ my local wreckers for one with a 90 day warranty on it, compared to the cost of $450 for a brand new one. then again you could also ebay/online search a replacement pump that you'd have to disassemble the all in 1 unit to exchange just the pump in it. <<< this is a bit more advanced than just popping off connections and a snap ring tho and isn't suggested for those not interested in work and mechanics
