im just wondering if i have a leaky intake or if it would be the head gasket. buick 3800 starts blowing heavy white smoke when it gets warm. pressure test on radiator can hear the air come through no 5 spark plug hole and if you turn it over the coolant will come out the hole so should that lead me to the intake?.
