Sounds like a blown head gasket to me. Smell your oil and see if it smells like coolant.

doesnt smell like coolant also i checked intake gaskets they are good and when i took the intake mani off all the seals looked good i also replaced the water pump still having the problem. but after taking the mani off there is a screw hole on the right side of teh engine under the mani and the coolant when running it shoots up under the alternator the only other thing i could think of its a heater core line fun the coolant didnt feel that hot when it sprayed any other inquries woul dbe greatly appreciated thanks.
