IMG Failure?Mhoward74 01-21-2004, 11:29 AM Can anyone point me at the Intake manifold Gasket. Based on some of the info posted here, I think that this is my problem. Engine shutdown at stops, idles really low, then cuts out. I need to drop it into neutral and rev to keep it going. Any help apprieciated. Thanks. rodeo02 01-21-2004, 01:00 PM Locate the large aluminum chamber on top of the engine (you may need to lift off the black plastic decorative cover off first). Follow down the left & right sides of the intake chamber, to where it mates up to the inside of each cylinder bank (left & right sides). You will see 3 runners mating up to each side, with a black plastic gasket material protruding out slightly between the intake & cylinder head surfaces. That's the IMG. It's a hard phenolic resin/plastic gasket that is prone to breakage. You can spray around with a fine water mist, or carburetor cleaner to pin-point where the leak is.

Also have to replace the o2 sensor and possibly a couple other things. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
