Gurgling like when something gets into the water, like exhaust gas from
A blown head gasket.
How was it running before??
Not all symptons will show if hg blown. Mayo on oil filler cap or white smoke
From exhaust.
How was the head gasket checked? Never seen or used sniffer test but have
Heard its not always reliable

Try bleeding the system believe there's two bleed screws and put the heater to hot! Is the thermostat opening they do stick!
