Hi everyone-
I'll have pictures tomorrow -- mechanic finished up the last of the work on Red IX while I was working on schoolwork and my chicken farm with my father. ANYWAY, even though we redid the seal to the manifold with a new gasket, no double-bubble sandwich (two gaskets), and with a new manifold, there's still a small leak near the front and the back.
Anyone ever had that kind of a problem? Hopefully the mechanic has not thrown away the double-bubble gaskets we removed so I can take pictures with the evidence of the two leaks for a better representation of where the compression is pushing out.
Still expecting better mileage as we had a defective smog air pump and the wrong size injectors in, so all of that is cleaned up too and replaced with a new pump and the right-sized (13-15 pph) injectors.
