System air bound?
Waterpump not circulating coolant?
Radiator plugged or restricted?
Defective thermostat?
if your coolant level is going low u could have a blown heater core . also check to see if ur coolant and oil are mixing it could have a blown head gasket remember they dnt have to mix though it could sill be blown also u can try putting a lower temp opening thermostate
system has air in it but we bled it and its some how getting air in it. we flushed the radiator and theres a brand new 195 thermostat in it> oil isn't milky and no white smoke but somehow air is getting in and the head gasket is the last thing we havent replaced? any suggestions?

Ive replaced the thermostat water pump and flushed the radiator on my 96 Chevy lumina and now it jumps from 125 to 260 while im driving It also overheats while im driving.?
You may have the problem of your intake manifold gaskets. They are a problems on the lumina. I had to have mine replaced due to the same thing. Also check if your coolant is mixing with your oil if it is. Than it is definitally your intake manifold gasket.
Should thermostat be replaced at the same time as the intake manifold gasket is replaced?
Yes you should replace the thermostat now to insure trouble free operation afterwards, actually as long as the main bearings were not damaged from the intake leak, you should also replace the head gaskets at this time, use only felpro gaskets and you will have troublefree performance for years to come. These are good torquey engines, gm just went cheap on the gaskets when new

If the gasket on the intake needs to be replaced do you have to replace the intake also?
You need to CLEAN the intake up real good where the gaskets fit against it. Then make SURE that the intake is NOT PITTED, If intake is real smooth then there is no reason to replace it. Just replace the gaskets.
Why would 2000 impala 3.4 run 220 degrees when at idle?
Have the head gaskets checked and intake manifold gaskets checked for leaks. The 3.4's are known for head and intake leaks! Or a bad thermostat.

How often do the intake manifold gaskets need to be replaced on a 1999 Pontiac Grand AM SE?
Theoretically, under normal operating conditions, and proper maintenence, intake manifold gaskets should last for the entire life of the vehicle. To my knowledge, there is no prescribed routine replacement interval for intake manifold gaskets. Of course anytime a head(s) is removed, then new gaskets should be used in reassembly.
