Re: 01 grand am 3400 head gasket?

My radiator hoses don't get any pressure. It feels like I could dump water into my resavoir continually and it would keep draining into the crankcase. I added about 2 gallons and the resavoir was still empty. I haven't pulled the plugs yet or done much other than see that there was a ton of AF in the oil when I pulled the dipstick out. I'll be getting it into my garage tomorrow and will be able to get a better look at things there. When my LIM's were replaced they SAID that they used the metal framed ones. Guess I'll be finding out soon.

So basically if I get the LIM off and I can find a leak there I should be good just replacing those gaskets? Also, what's the deal w/ the 180 tstat and the fan tuning? How does that help? Also I have been running the green AF for the last 120k miles since the time I had the LIM gaskets replaced the first time.
