Question:
I have a 97 Grand Am GT with 118,000 miles on it. The current problem with it is it is leaking coolant into to the engine. My mechanic has told me that this was most likely caused from a worn out head gasket. As a result of the problem 1 possible 2 of the cylinders are not firing. It currently runs, but won't for long. I want to get rid of it and fast, but wanted to know what ways i could do that and hopefully still get some money out of it. I know I could sell it to a junkyard, but not really sure how much that would bring. Thought mabye there was a better alternative. O and I'm not going to use it on a trade in cause I have my eye on a private sale. Any help would be very much appreciated.
-Thank You!

yes you could have a blown head gasket or you could have a bad intake gasket. If you want ,fix it yourself, every thing is in books, if it works out you feel good. If it dont its already broke anyway that is the way you gotta look at it, and plus you learned something. Then call the junk yard or part it out. Your not going to get a heap of money anyway so do it right...how to remove the odor in my car?
if you sell it to a junk or scrap yard you'll probably only get about 60 to 80 dollars a ton. Which means that you would only get about one hundred dollars. I would put it up for sale and try to get as much out of it as I could from an individual.what is the difference between a junction block and relay block on a toyota?
