i was driving today, enjoying my supra, then all of a sudden coolant sprayed onto my windsheild. i opened my hood and it looked like it blew a bit from the overflow tank. it looked okay so i went to work.

i got to work - car had a coolant warning level indicator and i was outta coolant.

got home, filled it up with coolant; seems fine. no indicator = not overheating.

nothing.

BUT the car has whitish blue smoke on start up for a few seconds.
also has a dribbling waterfall sound on startup. from dash. happening since i got it. 2 weeks ago.

car hasnt overheated, im suspecting either air in coolant system - you think this happened because the head gasket blew?

btw- oil doesnt look dirty or foamy.
