Bad Head Gasket, Yes/No??????? Sign In

My neighbor has a 99 nisson, 6 cyl:

The serpentine belt broke and he ran it hot. he took out the termostat and put on a new water pump.

Now: No water will flow through the radiator into the motor...the water won't round trip through the engine.
the water just sprays up (off and on). . . right about when number 3 cylinder is firing.

Quick fix.....
bars leak?
retork the head. . . ???

Sorry to break the news. NO quick fix . Head needs to be removed , sent to machine shop , checked for cracks/exessive warpage . machined flat if ok . reinstall with new gaskets .
