When you say the coolant bubbles out the tank, do you mean with the cap still on, or when you take the cap off? Because if its when you take the cap off, and the engine is still hot, then its perfectly normal, and it would look cloudy with all the bubbles in, but if its bubbling out the header tank with the cap still on, then it could be head gasket, signs of this are alot of white smoke comming out the exhaust, coolant levels dropping constantly, oil in the coolant, froth or milkshake like substance in the oil, and when engine is warm, the pipes go hard, because of the pressure in them. You wouldnt always get all of these symptoms, but you would get some.
