This is for people that know more about cars than me.
I have been working on my car little each day for like two weeks now... and finally got the cylinder head off (well on one side). I was just wondering, is there anything else I should check while I have the engine taken apart?
It is a 3.1L v6 Chevy Monte Carlo (1999). I blew the lower intake manifold for sure. I think I blew the head gasket because there was milky chunky stuff in the oil. I have taken off the front gasket so far and it was not destroyed, but you could see where it had been overheated and there were traces of oil/coolant/liquid between the gasket and metal surfaces.
Thanks for any help. Before this task, the most I had done to a car was just a tune-up.
P.S. I miss working on 4 cylinder hondas....
