Crown Vic losing oil and anti freezer

Asked by Kenneth Feb 28, 2018 at 06:22 PM about the 1997 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

It was overheating couldn’t figure out why no signs of
leaking antifreeze and while driving it starting making a
noise and stopped running and after about a month of it
sitting checked and all the antifreeze was gone and
checked the dipstick and there was no oil on it

Sounds like a blown head gasket. Coolant is likely leaking in to the engine and mixing with the oil. Take off the oil filler cap. If you see a chocolate milk looking substance, my above suspicion would be confirmed.
