Well I just found out today that apparently the Buick Regals and other related cars with the 3800s in them were recalled back in 2015 because of leaky valve cover gaskets that would leak oil onto the exhaust manifold and potentially cause a fire, and supposedly the issue was never repaired by the car's previous owners before I got it. So I have to get that repaired apparently as well, but thankfully I won't have to pay for the repairs, but I'm not sure how long its going to take to get the valve cover gasket replaced on the car because the mechanic that I told you about that said it would cost about $800 to replace the catalytic converter on my car said that supposedly it would take about a full working day or more to replace the valve cover gasket on my car, but he didn't say why though...
