Report: Intake Manifold Gaskets May Leak Coolant or Engine Oil
Oldsmobile Intrigue Problem
Model Years Affected: 1998, 1999, 2001
Engine Affected: 3.8L V6
Average Mileage: 139,583 mi (89,000 mi - 170,000 mi)
The intake manifold gasket may develop and external engine oil or coolant leak. In some cases, an internal coolant leak may occur causing coolant to mix with the engine oil. Our technicians tell us that operating the engine with a coolant/oil mix can result in internal engine damage. Replacing the intake manifold gasket should correct these leaks.

Upper intake leaked coolant into lower intake which caused engine to stall and not start again.
