To replace the upper and lower intake gaskets on a 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP, first, disconnect the battery and remove any components obstructing access, such as the air intake and throttle body. Then, remove the intake manifold bolts and lift off the upper intake manifold, followed by the lower intake manifold. Carefully clean the gasket surfaces, install new gaskets, and reassemble the manifolds, ensuring all bolts are torqued to the manufacturer's specifications. Finally, reconnect all components and the battery before starting the engine to check for leaks.

how to replace a distributor gasket on a 2000 Pontiac grand am 3.4l
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.
This is a major repair requiring the removal of the intake and exhaust manifold, and then the removal of the heads. Not a DIY repair unless you have the knowledge, and tools necessary to accomplish this repair. If you want to tackle this job, I suggest you buy yourself a repair manual for your Pontiac.
