Hi folks,
I have been driving long enough to know the sound blowing manifold gaskets make, problem is that both sides seem to be blowing. I have taken off one drivers side heat shield to have a look but can see no obvious signs of a blow !
Its certainly not the joint from manifold to the system but just can't seem to locate the problem.
I hear manifolds can crack but assumed that was just the cast iron ones ?
Wish I could see to blow to justify the effort...
It also hunts which I am pretty sure is down the blowing gaskets... so want to solve this before moving onto other reasons for the hunting !
Are the gaskets prown to blow? and both side ?
Cheers,
Stu
