Intake manifold leaking.
My intake manifold has a very mild oil leak from the front just behind the TB. I am going to replace the gasket tomorrow. Being as I am not the best mechanic I was wondering if there is anything I should worry about or may have problems with. I have the full repair manuals from GM and the process seems relatively simple. Any comments or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Steven |
i used pieces of pencils and put four of them in the bolt holes to put the manifold on as i was installing and to help guide them to the right place when dropped down. it helps to not ruin the bead of rvt on the ends. u have to get them to the right length or its a ***** to get them out so u will want to set it in and put a pencle or dowel in and measure it so there will be enough sticking out so u can grab it to get it out. i cut mine to short and had to take the manifold back off and cut up a couple more pencils. lol i liked the pencil thing because they are tight enough u have to screw them in a little if u dont trim them. dont get them to long or the manifold wont drop down or wont be enough room to get it under the overhang cant remember which.:)
