Consumer Description

MY UPPER INTAKE MANIFOLD LEAKS ENGINE COOLANT INTO THE COMBUSTION CHAMBERS AND INTO THE CRANKCASE. THE EGR TUBE MELTS THE UPPER PLASTIC MANIFOLD I HAVE HAD THE UPPER AND LOWER INTAKE REPLACED FOR THIS ISSUE ONCE BEFORE WITH GM PARTS AND IT HAPPENING AGAIN. IF IT NOT FIXED THE COOLANT CAN CONTAMINATE MY OIL AND LOCK UP MY ENGINE WHEN TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD AND POSSIBLY CAUSE ME TO CRASH. IF THE ENGINE LOCKS UP I WILL LOSE POWER STEERING AND BRAKING ABILITY. *TR
