Pontiac Repair: Head gasket, gasket kit, head gasket


Question
How do I replace the head gaskets on the 3400 SFI V6 Front Wheel Drive Engine for the Pontiac Grand Am

Answer
Hi Rene:

There are far far to many steps for me to list here on how to do this job the right way. I would get a service manual at one of the bix box parts stores. Stay away from a Haynes manual. look for either a Chilton/or Motor manual. This is a BIG job and if your a novice I wouldn't suggest you do it your self. If you are very handy it's a job that can be done but it will take the better part of 2 days or so. The parts are pretty inexpensive you can get a head gasket kit which will include all the gaskets needed to do the job instaed of buying all the small pieces your self. Good luck :)
