Need to rave a little
Need to rave a little well car was running fine until last night i noticed that i had a oil leak in the front and car was breaking up (though because i was running straight headers but poped the hood and notice it is coming from the intake lip. The gasket was thicker than i thought, it is high then though so i have two options
1. get lucky and dry it off really good and run a bead of copper gasket across it or
2. get off my lazy *** and just take it apart and redo it and save some money on a opti.....just need a little push to do it...
thanks for reading the post lol

If the intake lip is leaking, putting RTV ontop of it won't be anything buy a temporairy bandaid as it will leak again and very soon. Just take the intake off and do it right as it's not hard and can be done in less than 2 hours.
ram your funny.. so i took the intake off last night and yep use the wrong gasket maker i used black and it did not work...soooo im going with copper this time and for some reason i have some milkey stuff in my valley but its not coolant i think its tread seleant from the head??? and anyone know how that could happen.. guess i did not wait long enough for it to cure

finally fixed the car had a intake leak from the from and was throwing a code 42.. troubleshot the problem and found out if was the ICM so i changed ICM and Coil and now car runs like a champ. Now have another problem i melted the alt wire that goes in the back of the Alt on the headers ( i know think me later ) so do anyone know where i can find that plug wire at.
i had the good black stuff but it went flat i guess, i'm sure it did not help i started the car the same day and did not let it cure but i wanted to hear it run sooooooo bad i could not wait. SO i got oil al over the opti but it did not harm it so i guess i got lucky
