For sure, replace ALL the gaskets involved. When you purchase, ask for a head gasket set and you will get all the gaskets that are used.
Not necessarily, unless you think they are leaking.
Not necessarily. However, you should always have a qualified machine shop resurface the head for you whenever you replace a head gasket. While resurfacing the head, the machine shop technician will be able to examine the valves, seats and stem seals and be able to tell you what additional work needs to be done.
by the lower intake manifold while you are doing this you should replace the intake manifold gasket anyway because it will leak sooner or later.
very easy to replace by yourself... each rotor runs around $100 from dealer. You should replace the pads while your replacing the rotors. order them online to save some money
It will solve the problem. The 3.4 is notorious for poor head gaskets. You can replace the gaskets on the engine without replacing the engine, and that will solve the problem for quite a while. It will be much less costly than an engine replacement.
need to replace the intake manifold gasket
If there is a rubber gasket around the glass you sould be able to push it out and to replace get clothes line ro[e and run it in the in the middlemof the gasket all the way around have someone get inside while somebody pushes on the window start to pull the rope and the gasket should start over the lipo in side and follow it all the way around it should suck right in I have done a few of these good luck
I'll assume Lower Intake Gasket, since they tend to cause vacuum leaks. Get a manual from Autozone and expect about 4 hrs labor, you need to take off the upper intake manifold just to replace the Lower Intake Gasket. Probably should change/clean the PCV valve while ur in there. Good luck, man.
You will need to drop the transmission pan and replace the gasket. While you're at it, replace the filter and clean the pan.
While it's not ABSOLUTELY necessary, not having it could result in damage to the timing chain guides. If you're careful when removing the timing cover, you should be ok. It will make aligning the oil pump gerotor a bit tricky.
Many gasket kits actually recommend using a gasket goo. As long as you are careful and get only a light coating to hold the gasket while installing you will have no problem.
Check the battery direct with a volt meter, while running. Should have around 14 volts. Less than 13, then might have to replace the alt.
