I keep Grand Ams alive by tracking down the parts they don't make anymore — and the answers that save you from the wrong repair 🚗 Grand Am losing coolant — is it the head gasket? Grand Am owners ask this constantly: the coolant tank keeps dropping, the oil cap looks milky, the temperature creeps up in traffic. On the 3400, the answer is usually a different set of gaskets entirely: the intake gaskets. The originals weren't flat gaskets at all — plastic frames with rubber sealing beads. An iron block and an aluminum top end expand at different rates, every heat cycle works those beads loose, and the coolant attacks the plastic itself. The trade press puts it plainly: after 60,000–70,000 miles, many start to leak. But a milky oil cap alone does NOT prove a leak — short trips in cool weather leave the same film, plain condensation. What proves it is a cooling-system pressure test. When it's proven, here's the fix owners land on: Fel-Pro's PermaDryPlus set, MS 98003T — a metal carrier, not plastic. GM's own bulletin 03-06-01-010B says replace the intake bolts and use the updated torque. Two traps: the kit's injector O-rings come in two thicknesses — thick rings on the injector tips, thin rings at the fuel rail; mixed up, the injectors won't seat. And keep the pushrods in order — intakes are shorter than exhausts, and mixing them bends parts. If somebody hands you MS 98014T, that's the 3800 set — wrong engine. Shop estimators put the job around $1,300–$1,650 at today's rates; the set itself streets for about $100–$120. Figures are owner-reported, not a shop quote — and prices change over time, so treat the range as what owners paid, not what you'll pay today. GM even redesigned the gasket back in 2003. Not the coolant. The gasket. This whole check — the signs, the pressure test, the right set — joins my free Grand Am Parts Guide on Friday, November 13th, 2026 — the guide is free, and the link is on my profile. You — the driver who's been quoted a head gasket job on your 3400, and felt your stomach drop: what was YOUR first sign — the falling coolant, the milky cap, the sweet smell… or the puddle that never showed up?  #GrandAm #Pontiac #CarsOfTikTok #IntakeGasket #GrandAmGT
