Re: 95 grand prix gtp 3.4L
Your motor has an intake problem, but it usually causes a vacuum leak and not coolant loss (although it can't be ruled out). The more common problem on the 3.4 DOHC is the "quick connect" fitting in the intake that goes to one of the heater core hoses. They rot out, crack and start leaking. Changing them is a pain because they break off flush and turn clay-like, so you have to chisel the pieces out of the intake then chase the threads with a 1/2-NPT tap before screwing in the new fitting.
