It depends on what kind of engine that it has. The 4 cylinders are pretty easy to change. The v6 engine will take more time. You will need to check to see if the head is cracked or warped. Often people think that the head gasket is bad but really the engineā??s cylinder head has cracked and is leaking. It can be expensive. You can always part it out if the repairs are too expensive. Alldata www.alldata.com is one of the best places to find repair information.
