Its also making spitting noise when i give it gas.
It could also be a crack in the cylinder wall allowing coolant to leak through. Check to see if u have combustion gas in the coolant(bubbles with the car running and the radiator cap off) or use a dye test, they are like 30 bucks and reusable. The dye goes into a container that setsatop your radiator your pour the dye into the container and set a ball siphon on top and squeeze it to pull the gases through. If it changes color you have a combustion leak. Another option is to have a shop test for emmission gases coming from the top of the radiator with the cap off and the engine running. All they have to do is set the tip of the tester on top of the tube on the head of ur radiator. NOT in the coolant itself. Again with the engine running (I learned all this in 3 hours at UTI so wherever you took your car to check it out are pathetic)
