The intake gasket is a piece of material, sometimes a paper material reinforced at times with copper, that installs between the engine, and the intake manifold to seal the gaps to prevent air from entering. The intake manifold is a part of the engine that attaches to the carburetor, or injection system to deliver the correct air/fuel mixture to your engine for burning in the combustion chambers to make the power to drive the wheels. If that gasket is bad, excess air will enter the cylinders causing the engine to run poorly, or not at all.
