    intake manifold gasket

    so i found out where the leak is. from my intake manifold gasket. I even saw a chunk of it on the head beside an injector.

    how many hours labour is it?

    any thing i should watch out for?

      its a slight bitch to remove the intake manifold while its in the car still.... but it can be done...

      if you got a DOHC... you might as well open the intake manifold up/ and or clean the **** out of it while its off the car.... if you open it up... you might want to cut out some of the blockage in the manifold for extra flow. (just an idea...) take a look at my page i made a couple years back on it....

        your intake mani gasket is a bit of a pita. you need to remove the top of the intake manie. 7 bolts, 2 nuts IIRC. have fun. my piece of advice is remove all the vaccume lines from the intake mani side of the connections. and lable EVERYTHING!
        When you turn your car on... does it return the favor?

          i'm thinking of just doing an engine swap at this point
          or turning this car into my project car and gettinga new daily driver
