Consumer Description

I WENT TO START MY 1998 OLDSMOBILE 88, WHEN I HEARD A LOUD POP WHEN I TURNED THE KEY. I TURNED THE KEY OFF, AND SMELLED GAS AND ANTIFREEZE. I OPENED THE HOOD AND FOUND THAT FLUID WAS LEAKING FROM THE BACK OF THE MOTOR, ABOVE THE HEADS AND BELOW THE INTAKE MANIFOLD. MY INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET HAD RUPTURED, SPILLING FUEL AND ANTIFREEZE OUT OF THE MOTOR. *JB
