    Hello Gurus,
    I am about to buy a 2004 Grand Prix GTP comp G that has a blown head gasket. The good news is that it is only $2600 the bad news is that it was blown in December and has been sitting every since. The oil is milky and the coolant is chocolaty. Do you all have any advice of where I should start on this car? Do you think the whole engine will have to be replaced because it has set so long with the coolant in the oil? I have read that the intake manifold gasket can cause all of these same problems. Is that possible? Is there any where that I can find a “how to” to replace the head gasket? Thanks in advance for any advice.
