300-6

I have a 1989 300-6 it just shut down on me had to have it towed checked spark but real weak,I cranked it over and it won't fire any way I happened to check radiator when I took the cap off it pushed the water out as if it was hot does that mean I have a head problem also seems like back pressure in the radiator. help

I would put a vacuum gauge on it to check if there's a dead cylinder. Or a compression tester.

If you take the cap off of a warm radiator COOLANT will come out/over flow! That is normal.
