Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, click this link (fngt.gq). That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask Crazy, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then you can donate.

A leak in the intake manifold can prevent starting. Is it that bad?

its not to that point yet. i've noticed that I'm slowly losing coolant tho, and i can see where the gasket is broken and coolant is coming out. i have an 05 p71 vic so those plastic manifolds tend to go out around this time haha

Man, even if it is plastic and cracks, you've got parts aplenty with that car. There's a ton of parts out there for you.

for sure! i've got the new part, but im plannning to also flush/change the coolant. i haven't looked it up yet but do you think i should do that before or after changing the manifold?
