I've got a 1980 diesel 260 volvo and my girlfriend went to a trip yesterday.
A coolant hose at the back of the engine got off and the coolant spilled.
She had the car jacked to a garage and the guy fixed the things and try to
start-it off again but nothing worked. It's like the car doesn't have any
compression.
Yesterday she immediatly stoped when she saw the meter going high and shut
off the engine.

I hope it's only the fuel pump...
What do you think ?

Overheat + no compression = bad news. Sorry, I think the head is
warped.
