Simple method... get some carb cleaner or starting fluid. With the engine running, spray the area where the intake manifold gasket is. If you experience sudden bursts of increased RPMs, you have an intake manifold gasket issue.

Can a Intake gasket Leak gas in the oil?

not likely on newer models, but on older ones it could be the fuel pump. If you have that problem with a newer model it could be the head or head gasket, I just replaced intake &head gasket and installed a new head on a 2001 neon and the car started right up after having that problem.


Just replaced the intake manifold gaskets on a 91 Chevy Suburban and its blowing out white smoke Can you get white smoke from changing the intake gaskets incorrectly or is it another problem?

Yes it can leak water through the intake gasket into the runners in the head and smoke white, But the water ports and intake runners are a long way from each other because of the design. SO I would say that you have a cracked head are bad head gasket that is making it smoke. Did you get the engine hot are over heat it ? If so then you have a head gasket or head problem not an intake problem.
