Apparently the 3.1s are notorious for the intake gaskets going out & getting oil in the coolant, about 60-80 thousand miles.

That's alot of miles you have there. Did you buy the car new or how many miles did it have when you got it & what kind of oil do you use?
Bought it in '05 i believe with 103k miles. Ive taking pretty good care of her over the years. We normally just put Pennzoil in it. I get the oild changed about every 4k miles and still runs like a top. The 3.8L motors GM built are like tanks. Nothing for them to reach 300k miles
