check on the coolant problem, if it is burning it thats bad and it shouldnt be driven.

What I would do is pressure check the the coolant system. Take it and pump it up to 15lbs. Let it sit there for 10 minutes and check it. IT should still be at 14-15lbs. If the drops, then you have a leak.

The starting problem could be clogged injectors or low fuel pressure too. Are you sure it's burning the coolant and not losing it somewhere in the engine bay (such as the water pump weep hole)?

Is it hard to start when the car is cold or even after you've drove it? Let me know.
