| I HAVE A 1999 PONTIAC GRAND AM 3.4L. I'VE OWNED THIS CAR SINCE 2001 AND I HAVE ALREADY REPLACED MY INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET (UNDER WARRANTY) IN 2002. I NOW HAVE TO REPLACE IT AGAIN! EXCEPT THIS TIME THERE WAS A FAULT IN THE GASKET IN THE ENGINE AS WELL, WHICH RESULTED IN SEIZED BEARINGS, SNAPPED CAMSHAFT, BROKEN AND BENT VALVE AS WELL AS THE CAPS TO THE OIL AND COOLANT BEING OVERHEATED AND NOT GOING ON PROPERLY. I AM TOLD THIS IS BECAUSE OF DEXCOOL AND THE GASKETS. *TR | |
