My 2000 Chevy Malibu leaks antifreeze and overheats. I have already replaced the head gaskets and now the problem continues. What else could be wrong?

I just had my intake manifold replaced on my 2000 impala that could be your problem it is kinda costly though it cost me about $1000 here in Pa. You don't say where the coolant leaks from. If the leakage is from the engine, determine where it is coming from and start looking from there. If by leakage, you mean overflow from radiator or coolant reservoir, then here are some causes of overheating that you might consider: thermostat stuck in closed position; faulty water pump; broken fan blades; loose belt; clogged radiator; radiator cap not holding pressure; blown head gasket; low or no coolant; leaking hoses.

Can incorrect antifreeze damage engine in intrepid?
yes, to a degree. all forms of antifreeze that are for automotive use should be compatible tho. match the color you put in to the color you take out, or is in there already (green = plain Jane antifreeze, other colors = high life antifreeze)
Should you mix antifreeze with water or put or just put in antifreeze alone?
depends on what kind you buy , you can buy premixed (already has water added ) or just plane antifreeze ,then you need to mix it 50/50 with water
Why is one headlight out but the other one works and have already replaced the bulb?
Blown fuse or wiring defect for the bulb you have already replaced. You have replaced the wrong bulb. The new bulb was defective.
What can you do if you have already added the green antifreeze?
It depends on which antifreeze/coolant you used. The prestone brand claims it can be mixed with any other brand. Read the bottle to see if it has the same claim

When adding Prestone antifreeze to a Chevy Cavalier 1999 do you need to add water also?
Yes. Never add pure antifreeze. Pure antifreeze will actually freeze before a 50/50 mix. Add coolant that is a 50/50 mix of antifreeze and distilled water. You can buy it already pre-mixed.
