Bucky Posted September 1, 2005 Report Share Posted September 1, 2005 excuse me but thta gasket looks a bit small for manifold..... and even if it was a manifold you still wont f**k your engine..... it might throw out a bit more gases at MOT time but itll be reet. i ran my astra diesel without a manifold gasket to newcastle and back twice and drove round all week in it and never had any problems....... its not gonna f**k your engine. even if there was no gasket in the inlet side your engine will still be fine..... come on whats your next shite reply gonna be???

Koxx_TryAll Posted September 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2005 no i want to know exactly why you seem to think having no exhaust flange gasket will f**k your engine??????? ← A leak at the exhaust flange gasket is often caused by improper torquing. Too little torque and the connection loosens. Too much torque and the gasket will bow slightly — again allowing exhaust gases to leak. If left uncorrected, erosion of the aluminum cylinder head material will occur quite quickly. A loss of material amounting to only a few thousandths of an inch could be enough to make the cylinder unusable. Therefore, correcting the problem quickly is essential. If the aluminum cylinder head material has already eroded as the result of an exhaust gas leak, repair is sometimes possible. This cannot be done by hand. Studs must be removed and the damaged surface refinished by use of a milling operation. No more than twenty thousandths of an inch may be removed. Should it be necessary to remove more than twenty thousandths of an inch to obtain a true surface, the cylinder should be replaced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koxx_TryAll Posted September 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2005 ok thank you >_< ← You see. As i'm a mechanic aswell it seems i know alot more about it then you do. Also theres more reasons. As you increase revs you may get popping and perhaps in a darkened garage or at night a blue flame shooting out of a pipe on the front of the engine around the exhaust pipes. The flame if any will come from around the clamp. It may not have been assembled correctly at the Factory, or it might just have got tired. It can also make it LOOK like a weeping head gasket, because of the spooge that comes out, so don’t go replacing your head Gasket Until you’re sure.! Also, this junction is right below the temp sensor that turns on the fan. The hot air blowing out of there Can heat up the thermostat and fan sensor, turning the fan on prematurely. And when the fan comes on, it will blow the hot exhaust gasses on your leg. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
