Next query. 67 BGT, original engine tranny. Now the problem. For no reason the engine will lock up when I turn the key. I put it in gear and the car wont even move. Push it down a hill and drop into

Close but I have yet to experience this problem WITH the engine running. It only happens at startup. Usually the starter will give a faint click and then the whole mess is locked up. The tranny I gue

Wonder if you have a head gasket leaking enough coolant into a cylinder to cause this? Are you losing coolant? W. R. Gibbons Dept. of Molecular Physiology & Biophysics Univ. of Vermont College of Med
