you might need a new engine, because it looks like your head is cracked or an internal component is cracked ....... from the coolant

yeah it all depends on what part has been leaking, if its a water pump then you possibly would of fried your engine.

you said it wont start and coolant goes everywhere...

do you know the history of the motor like has it been cooked before?

check for fuel and spark at the motor id focus on getting it running first

Im not to sure about the history, im not sure where the coolent was comming from so i took pics of it. i am pretty sure the motor is cooked as i took the dipstick out and the dipstick looks black, not like normal motor oil and smells burnt. the car has done 230,000 so id say its had it.
