Well its kind of an intricite problem... not only is my engine occasionally knocking, but when it goes to idle it dies on me, and i have trouble starting it back up... The oil should be good, its not too full or too empty, and was changed around 900 miles ago... The temp guage on my speedometer is past the H, and so im not driving it anymore, but i dont know what this problem is...or how to even diagnose it. I had smoke coming from the head for like 5 seconds, but it hasnt done it since... Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance for any help.
Josh Frost.

Maybe try get the head and head gasket checked, might explain the coolant error, and I did have similar problems with a Mazda I used have turned out it had a nasty great crack in the head. (I hope it is not that for your sake)
