[QUOTE="glittle75, post: 531350, member: 8675"] yes its an intake problem. you need to stop driving the car, and remove your PI intake. check it over very good and thoroughly and check your work on the install. also look at the coolant crossover tube on the intake, where the t-stat goes, and check for a leak there. i would say that if it burned up all the coolant and you had to re-fill it all of a sudden, you need to take a deeper look at the intake and your work. you may have missed something. and by keeping on driving it, you are running the risk of overheating it and causing alot more damage. did you torque the intake bolts down correctly? did you break any? if you broke any bolts, and are still running the intake without them all being torqued, then you will have coolant getting in the motor because the gasket is not tight. so check all the bolts. but whatever you do, dont drive it until you get it figured out.
