dfenc Posted January 13, 2003 Report Posted January 13, 2003 I have a problem with my lumina 99 with engine 3100 coolant semms to leak from the intake its is a frequent problem with this engine??? and is expensive to repair? :? Quote
Redfox340 Posted January 13, 2003 Report Posted January 13, 2003 Out of the intake? Holy cow... I've only seen that on the DOHC's. It's not usually a problem but I'll keep my eyes open for any other postings / listing about it. How many miles? Any records of maintenance? It's not a hard project to do if you think you can handle it. But if you can't, you could be looking at around $350 - $500 since there's a decent amount of parts to pull before the manifold gasket(s) can be replaced. Are you sure it's not the thermostat o-ring first? Perhaps that could be leaking... but let us know, and best of luck! - RedFox340 Quote
cutlassdude96 Posted January 15, 2003 Report Posted January 15, 2003 All 60* engines have this problem. If you do this your self, intake gaskets are about $35, valve covers gaskets are about $15. Quote
