>>I have a follow up question to this...before the car went of the road
(literally), the head gasket set had been replaced twice.  The second time
was very shortly after the original change..but because the car began to
overheat, losing water at an alarming rate...the mechanic figured that the
head had not been refaced.  Even after the second gasket went on (refaced
head and all) it would overheat constantly.. new radiator, new hoses etc.
but still the expansion tank would empty.
What should be my next step?
