My first post said intake plenum instead of runners. Prolly made a few of ya's go.. Huh? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/unsure.gif) Anyway, I'm restaing the question with the correct title (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) sorry! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool.gif)

Got mine off to replace runner hose so as to eliminate another vacuum leak possibility. Speaking of... I found the nuts on the runners to be a little more than hand tight. This may have been the leak I was looking for but it's off now so the new goes on. Also, anyone know the torque? thanks..........b |
