I hate to have you remove the intake on my account
By Dave Shoe - 09/17/2002 12:00:03 PM; IP 12.104.160.195
I'm really just guessing on a likely scenario.

As I thought about it there is greater likelyhood the leak is at the gasket, because the first point the crossover contacts the runner in the manifold is pretty deep inside the runner, and the leak would likely affect the #4 and #6 cylinder, too.

If you do pull the intake, inspect the gasket carefully for exhaust tracks between the exh cross and the #7 intake port face, and also maybe tape one side of the manifold's exhaust crossover closed and pour water into the open side. Look for water coming out of some runners. If you see none, I wouldn't suspect the intake any farther.

Guessing, as always,
Shoe.
