scoobykilla Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Rite people, i have a few questions.Just removed my exhaust mani and had a small crack welded up, the mani is now back on the car and the car now sounds like a tractor( it sounds like its blowing from the bottom of the seal between the mani and cylinder head.TIME TO OWN UP I used the old gasket when putting the mani back on......is this the cause to my problem ???Next point, the manifold is a toyosport one so do i need to order a certain gasket or will a Genuine Toyota gasket do teh job ??And finally....What size are the 6 nuts holding the mani on ?? Thread aswell pleaseSorry for all the questions, this has been doing my head inThanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ro55ifumi Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Right first thing first, you answered the question with using the gasket again!!Pop in to your local dealer an order both the Genuine Gasket an bolts, will probs cost you £25 an you will be good to go!John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MARC MOSS Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 That and find a different manifold as well because it will crack again in the next couple of months I promise Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scoobykilla Posted January 18, 2012 Author Share Posted January 18, 2012 cheers john, so the OEM gasket will be fine for the Toyosport manifold ?Also is the gasket from the decat to exhaust (triangle shaped one) something i could get from a local car parts place ?

corofin12345 Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 make sure to check the mani for warpage while its off too, handiest way is too put it up against a window Quote Link to post Share on other sites
