Something else just occurred to me. I re-used the intake manifold gasket. It was thin, flimsy and the paint was flaking off of it. What if it is not sealing properly between the head and the intake manifold and coolant is passing from that blocked off passage between #3 and #4 into one of the intake runners.
I suppose checking the plugs after the cold start might indicate this, particulary on #3 and #4... I could get extremely lucky and potentially fix this by using some permatex in lieu of the gasket, presuming the head and manifold are flat enough. A reasonable thing to consider? _______________________________________________ Miatapower mailing list [email protected] http://list.miatapower.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/miatapower
