To replace the lower intake gasket on a 3100 engine, first disconnect the battery and remove any components obstructing access, such as the air intake and throttle body. Then, drain the coolant and remove the upper intake manifold. Carefully remove the lower intake manifold, clean the surfaces, and replace the old gasket with a new one, ensuring proper alignment. Reassemble everything in reverse order, refill coolant, and reconnect the battery.
Check the lower intake gasket, or the thermostat...
take it to a mechanic
Yes it can but the intake is probably the bad guy. General Motors had alot of problems with them.
What size engine? 3.1 or 3100? yes there is a difference. j1taylor@twcny.rr.com
I just had my intake gasket changed on my 99 Monte Carlo for the same thing. My cousin is a mechanic and has changed the same gasket on several cars with the 3.1 engine. The gasket is about $60 - $75 plus labor.
on my 2000 Malibu with the 3100 or 3.1 it cost me a little over $700 bucks..that's with anti freeze flush and fill, new thermostadt, the good gasket set (fel pro)not the cheap one and oil and filter..
3100 b.C
bad head or head gasket
A vacuum leak can cause the engine to idle high, but worse than that it can cause one or more cylinders to run lean. That can result in exhaust valves and pistons running at a higher than acceptable temperature and cause premature engine failure.
