Alright, here's what I did.

Sunday, I replaced my plugs (+4), wires, air filter, cap and rotor (i swear the rotor i pulled out had tar and sand on the electrode, haha). And it was fine that night. Yesterday, it was time to change the oil, so i put fully synthetic, mobil 15W-50 in the car. My dad, for some reason talked me into buying the 15w because of the damn heat up here, so i did. I left my car running today in my friends driveway, with the air conditioner on full blast. I came back out 10 minutes later, open my door, and i swore some clown sprayed me in the face with anti-freeze. So i turned the air off, and drove to macomb later this night (hour and 15 minutes), and the whole way, even with the air completely off (at least the conditioner) i was get small smells of antifreeze.

Anybody, help, quickly

What ever toyota put in there, when i got the car 8 months ago, i had toyota take everything apart, check it, drain all fluids and replace. Has anybody else used this type of oil though? And a supra i've driven smelled like this because the head gasket was blown, same thing maybe?

if you smell antifreeze in the car it sounds like the heater core is broke/leaking
was the car overheating?
is the coolant level low?
the car wasn't over heating, and still isn't. I'll have to check the coolant level, but i'm pretty darn sure it's fine.
