Severely blown head gasket. pull off the head and see how warped it is. Your probably best off replacing the engine.
edit: make sure it is coming from under the head first. tbh iv never heard of something this sever. could just be hose/radiator leak or something. see if there is coolant in your oil.

throttle sticking 1997 1.8
The throttle is sticking for under half a second when i lift my foot off the gas peddle. the throttle is not actually mechanically sticking, i think it is a sensor or something. when i redline the car ill get a big puff of black smoke out the exhaust which might mean the engine is still getting fuel...

[quote="marcellarius"]$29,000 USD for the sports package... that's about $38k NZD.
I'm going to guess Mazda NZ will want $60k ...[/quote]
john andrew wants 55k for a 2015 so your probably right on the mark.
