So figured out the problem with my engine and something got sucked up in my intake and damaged cylinder 1. I got a whole escort gt engine swapped in today and the freaking intake off the old one now has an air leak by the nut at cylinder 1. No luck for me. Gotta wait 2 weeks now till I can work on it again for it is at a friends garage and he will be out of town next week end and is a good drive there and back to do it after work. I'll wait. I mean I got the new to me engine for $50.

50$?! Jeese!

I knew this was coming. Hopefully it's an easy fix just tighten the bolt use a new gasket!? Right!?

Well it is super tight and has gasket. I think I will remove and add rtv as gasket. That should seal it.

[Flyin4stroke]

Yeah just get a gasket. I think they have metal gaskets on some. I reuse metal gaskets. That's an easy fix. I just got mine going again and blew the clutch in 3 days on 15lbs. more bs but stuff happens put a pinhole in my radiator too somewhere dangit.
