Exhaust manifold gasket.

Postby gt-bal » Sat May 04, 2013 9:26 pm

Hi guys. Can anyone help. I have a blow out somewhere on my exhaust so I thought but can't seem to see or hear on the main exhaust. It sounds like coming from more the front end so was thinking it might be the exhaust manifold gasket but not sure what I need to order. I see them on gamskil not don't know what to order or am I even right. Thanks.

Find out what the problem is before you buy anything. If in doubt, have a mechanic check it out.

Ok. Just thought someone might have had same prob before or a know prob. I also have a long term issue on the head gasket cover in that it seeps a little oil. Not a lot like just bit messy after a while under Neath. Think it's prob the seal in the gasket cover but I was lead to belive that the mivec has a gasket less gasket if you know what I mean. Am I right in saying it uses the heat resistance silicone paste as a seal. Does anyone have any pics or video for doing this. :D
