How do you Know if the head gasket is blown on a 1998 buick park ave?
These engines do not blow head gaskets. You need to replace the black plastic intake or plenum. They will leak coolant into the combustion chamber. Some roge mechanics will tell you it's head gaskets to get you to pay more money. Remove upper intake, remove spark plugs to get coolant out and replace and fill with coolant.
Coolant leakage by engine block is this probably gasket leak?
Yes, this is normally caused by a blown head gasket cracked or warped head or both. The intake manifold gaskets go bad and leak coolant also. The original Chevrolet stock intake gaskets were not so good.
Does leaking coolant mean the head gaskets has gone?
Not necessarily have system pressure tested to determine the source of the leak
Are intake gaskets and head gaskets the same thing?
intake gaskets are between the head and intake. head gaskets are between the head and the block..

If you run your Cadillac eldorado etc for 3500 rpm for 5 minutes and car gets hot is that a sign of a bad head gasket?
The Northstar is a good motor, but they do blow head gaskets some times. If the coolant is going above about 230 degrees, or if you are having problems keeping the coolant filled, it sounds like you need head gaskets. The problem is caused by old coolant corroding the head bolt threads out of the block, and the head bolts pull out, releasing the clamping force on the gaskets.Have a garage check the coolant for exhaust gas - this is the best way to diagnose the problem.
What all needs to be replaced when you are replacing a head gasket?
Besides the head gasket and head bolts, any other gaskets, hoses, belts and coolant damaged or lost during the process.
