Problem with my 2002 Chevy malibu
3100 V6
Repairs done prior = i just changed the engine
Repairs for this problem = i just changed the t-stat and the int manifold gasket
tip/donation yes
GM tech = kk
question = i did the work above but the car is still overheating and losing water
I'm guessing it has to be a head gasket I'm going to go ahead and change both
of them with a Felpro severe duty gasket and hope and pray this solves the
problem is there any advice you can give or something i should pay close
attention to also could i get the torque specs in ft. Lbs for the head bolts.

Thanks for the donation.
I will e-mail those specs for head gaskets and intake manifold with push rod and
valves right out to you......
