gasket for intake

Post by 1-3-2-4 »

Quick question.. I got my gaskets however I'm having a hard time lifting the manifold up high enough to get the old gasket out.. right now I can only get it about 1/4" at least 2 inches would be good.

yeah it's a hassle, you would be better off just taking the manifold out so you can scrape the paper gaskets off if you have too.

mine was not a paper gasket but I finally got it off like 2 hours later.. had to keep running inside to warm up.. 40F out with blowing wind made it chilly..

Doing this and new plug wires made my whole power band much smoother.
