I own a 1996 Buick Regal Custom with 65k miles on it. Recently it began leaking engine coolant, but only while I drive it. I can fill up the overflow tank and usually drive for about 20 miles before the low coolant light comes back on. Could you please tell me what the problem might be? Thanks

If its the 3400 engine its your intake manifold gasket.Very common problem.make sure you get the felpro problem solver gasket.It usually leaks near the thermostat housing and is hard to see.Make sure the intake is torqued down properly per specs and you dont mix up the push rods as half are long and the other half are short..
