You know (or you should now) after buying all that crap you didn't need, sometimes it's cheaper to just take it to a Chevy dealer and let them fix it and get it over with.

I had a 91 Lumina, and it was, and still is an excellent car.....exwife has it. Once upon a time it ran hot and I could not figure why. Took it to Chevy garage and the mechanic said before he even looked at anything, he knew what it was. There is an aluminum fitting under the intake someplace, that will go bad and leak. You will never find it looking from the outside. Sure eneough, I watched him tear it apart and out came this corroded fitting. Cost me $191 to get it fixed. Worth it? Damned right! The car was fixed in one day, I would never have found it and I didnt suffer any scraped knuckles or invent new cuss words. It makes no difference what you paid for the car ($50 or $5000)..if it is a good reliable vehicle, get it fixed and move on.
