Alright, here's what I did.

Sunday, I replaced my plugs (+4), wires, air filter, cap and rotor (i swear the rotor i pulled out had tar and sand on the electrode, haha). And it was fine that night. Yesterday, it was time to change the oil, so i put fully synthetic, mobil 15W-50 in the car. My dad, for some reason talked me into buying the 15w because of the damn heat up here, so i did. I left my car running today in my friends driveway, with the air conditioner on full blast. I came back out 10 minutes later, open my door, and i swore some clown sprayed me in the face with anti-freeze. So i turned the air off, and drove to macomb later this night (hour and 15 minutes), and the whole way, even with the air completely off (at least the conditioner) i was get small smells of antifreeze.

Anybody, help, quickly

What ever toyota put in there, when i got the car 8 months ago, i had toyota take everything apart, check it, drain all fluids and replace. Has anybody else used this type of oil though? And a supra i've driven smelled like this because the head gasket was blown, same thing maybe?
