Your idle will jump up and down. You may also feel a misfire, due to the vacuum leak. You may also hear a hissing sound from the engine. Nice job you nailed it. But if you hear no hissing, you can spray some brake cleaner around the intake manifold. You'll definitly hear it. The cleaner will remove any crap blocking it from the hissing.

Intake manifold leaks will cause the engine to idle rough and get poor fuel economy. An exhaust manifold will have no symptoms other than the sound of the leak.

How can you tell the difference between a bad head gasket and a bad upper intake gasket?

A pressure test on the cylinders will tell if you have a bad head gasket. If you hear a whistle sound near the intake gasket, spray WD-40 (or any type of petroleum spray) on the area and if there is a leak the engine rpms (or engine sound) should change.


What would cause a 2000 Mountaineer to make a whining sound in first that stops above 25 MPH and starts again when the vehicle stops?

Noises have to be heard to be correctly diagnoised but just guessing, I would say it is a vacuum leak at either the throtle body or intake manifold gasket. Get some carb cleaner and CAREFULLY spray the intake and throtle body to find it.


1994 dodge caravan that has a miss to it but does not have problems starting Owner said it was the manifold donut gasket that needs replaced Is this possible?

A exhaust manifold that is warped, cracked, or missing a gasket will make a sound like a engine miss. I usually look for soot near the suspected area to tell for sure.


Where could a vacuum leak be on a Saturn 2003 L200?

As with any internal combustion engine, the vacuum leak can be anywhere on the intake side, including intake manifold gasket, cracked intake manifold, EGR valve, throttle body gasket and even the vacuum operated devices can contribute to leaking, such as the vacuum assisted brakes or vacuum operated vent system. Starting fluid can often be helpful when searching for a vacuum leak; search the likely places, listening for the the typical hissing sound. Once you find a place that you suspect of the leak, spray a little of the starting fluid. When the starting fluid hits a vacuum leak the engine RPM's change slightly. Good luck.

Why would your Ford Wind Star sound like it has a knocking valve or piston?

It may be a bad valve or piston, use an automotive stethoscope to track down the noise and I think you might find the noise comes from the intake manifold Ford is having a problem with the intake manifolds on Windstars and some other Ford vehicles, the internal baffle loosens and makes a knocking sound as it is moved by airflow. You will need to replace the upper intake manifold with a corrected part from Ford.
