I got the terminal out, got the new one in and the fan works great now!

Now im waiting on this Thermocure product that people swear by it to get rid of rust and clogs out of the cooling system solving a lot of peoples overheating problems. I should get it Thursday, very excited, I want to enjoy my car again, haven't driven it in 3 months.

You've got a bad head gasket between two adjacent cylinders

I read his following post.

My leakage test was only on cylinders 2,3,4. So cylinder 3 was reading between 30-35% leakage after a few attempts, cylinder 2 and 4 was reading 15-20%
leakage after a few attempts.
