Re: Lower Intake Manifold Gasket Replacement
Well, take heart ... it was still a good maintenance action. A new balancer is not a mistake.

Re: Lower Intake Manifold Gasket Replacement
Sure wish you could pick up an inductive type timing light ... so the current to the plugs could be checked just at the cylinders.

I don't have anymore money to invest in this thing anyway. I'm not really sure what I'm going to do right now...

Re: Lower Intake Manifold Gasket Replacement
Have you serviced the synchronizer shaft?

Re: Lower Intake Manifold Gasket Replacement
No, I started to yesterday, but it was quite the challenge to get to...once I realized how small those screws were, I was afraid I was going to drop them.
Can it make my engine run so rough? It feel like it's constantly getting worse... And besides, my wife said no more...she figured it up and at about this point I got about $1k in and that's hopefully what I can get back... I really appreciate all of your help though...I have learned a lot! Wanna buy a van?! It's got lots of new parts...

Re: Lower Intake Manifold Gasket Replacement
I wish you would do the synchronizer shaft service ...and modify the inner-upper as I described ... should cost you nothing but time. For an engine to run perfectly, everything has to be perfect.
. Those 7/32 hex screws should stay in the sensor until you force them out ... as they are weakly captured. . Tip: To help hold screw/bolt heads in a socket ... first cover the bolt head with a fragment of dry paper tower and then force the socket down onto the bolt head ...the paper helps to seize the bolt. |
