Just wanted to say thank you to all of those that posted on these forums in relation to idle issues. I just spend all of four hours replacing my inlet manifold gasket and this solved the problem!
Thank you! |

Yep, it'll do the trick. Apparently it's common for the gasket to leak around cyls 1 & 2, but mine was leaking at the back, around 5 &6.
Now I have a sweet, smooth idle down to 600rpm that is only belied by some slight whine from the blower :-)
