My '97 saturn SC2 will fire up, then when I put it in reverse, it dies. When I try to start it, I have to put the gas to the floor, and then the idle sputters and the car's exhaust smokes out my parking lot. If I wait too long at a red light, it overheats and spills water all over. I think it's a blown gasket, but would like some advice before I take it to the shop and spend more $$$ than I need to. Thanks for the help.
