Im looking at this '02 Cavalier with the 2.2 ohv engine. I think this was the last year for this engine before the 2.2 Ecotec replaced it. It is in good condition with 59k mi, and can pick it up for $4,300 OTD. Does any one know if GM ever resolved the Head Gasket issues on this engine and if so when? Does this car use dex-cool? If so, should I worry about corroding parts like on earlier dex-cool vehicles or were these issues resolved on the later models?
Also, the vehicle is 4spd auto, and I couldn't find an ATF dip stick. There was a red cap I unscrewed on the top of the tranny, and I assune that was the fill. How do I check the atf level?
thx for any info
