hi i have a 1998 buick lesabre with 72,000 miles, the engine is the 6 cylinder 3.8L series ll. Everything runs great my only concern is what could happen. I have been hearing there are issues with the upper and lower intake manifold ,a possible defect causing antifreeze to spill into block.when it comes to engines I am not really educated so i hope that was explained the right way. So can this be prevented? What are the trouble signs to look for? Should I even be concered? any feed back would be great Thanks :D

look for any signs of coolant leaking at the gaskets around the plastic manifold.If there is,replace the upper manifold and gasket.
