Hi there,

I am about to go thru this whole procedure this weekend. I have already purchased and received the Dorman replacement kit. From all the reserch that I have done ( and it's been a lot) There is no problem with using the "O" rings that are already installed in the replacement manifold. 2 things that are a must to remember ---- you have got to completely remove any residue from the old gasket and have the surface of the block very clean and it is very important to follow the torque sequence and apply the proper amount of torque. USE A TORQUE WRENCH DO NOT GUESS ON THIS ! Take your time with this project and good luck.

Can a crack in a manifold cause an oil leak?

The answer is yes. A crack in a manifold is much worse than just the oil leak. Manifold cracks are generally caused by severe overheating or improper assembly of parts. A crack in a manifold can cause oil to leak but the oil leak is inconsequential as the crack renders the engine unusable safely, without replacing the manifold. Running an engine with a cracked manifold is very bad for the rest of the engine and your own safety.

What is the difference between an intake manifold and an exhaust manifold?

The intake manifold is where the air and fuel mix and enter the engine. The exhaust manifold is where unspent gas and air exit the engine. In other words the intake manifold is where the engine breathes in and the exhaust manifold is how the engine exhales out.


Will a 2005 Lincoln 3.9 engine bolt up to a 2002 Lincoln 3.9?

It will bolt up, but the throttle on an'02 is mechanical and the throttle on the '05 is electronic, the intake manifold is different and I believe the heads are different. The '02 PCM will not work with the '05 engine.


You have 1998 Astro van and have an antifreeze leak you have checked and replaced all the belts Where could it be coming from?

If it has the 4.3 ltr engine, the intake manifold is notorious for leaking at the back of the engine where you cannot see it. Try using a mirror at the rear of the intake manifold and look for wetness. Replacing the gaskey is the best fix.
