Depending on the motor you may need to put a small dot of silicone at the corners where the intake meets the head of a V motor. 4-6 cylindar straight motors don't use sealer.

I want to clean the concrete area (under the carpet)of where cats have urinated & then seal it to mask the odor. What product should I use to accomplish the job of sealing the concrete?
Take a look into a sealer called StoneLok. You will definitely want to go with a polyurethane sealer because it will have a thicker base. Twice as thick as an acrylic sealer.

How do you measure how much sealer you need to stain a deck?
Most products like deck sealer will tell you on the can how many square feet it will cover.
Is there a sealer to stop a leaking intake manifold gasket?
no, but you can replace the gasket entirely add the sealant ensuring a leak free fit.
Can you use a sealer to fix the intake gasket leak?
NO. You MUST replace the intake gasket.
Can an intake manifold gasket with a small tear in a narrow section be repaired with scotch tape?
That's probably not a good idea. You could use silicone gasket sealer, but let it thoroughly dry before you start the engine, otherwise it could be sucked down the intake.
How do you install an exhaust manifold on a Renault?
The exhaust manifold needs to have a gasket in place to help seal the juncture between the manifold and the engine. After the gasket and gasket sealer are in place, tighten the bolts for the exhaust manifold. The exhaust pipe can then be replaced on the new exhaust manifold.
Torch spec ts on intake manifold?
Intake Manifold (Cast Iron Heads) Non- Hardening Sealer 30 ft-lbs.
In what order does the thermostat and gasket go?
The thermostat goes in the recess of the manifold . The gasket should be glued to the thermostat housing. Silicone sealer makes a metal surface slippery, so if used, should be done sparingly. Let the two adhere and install the housing to the intake. Do not over tighten as a bolt could possibily break. BE SURE THE SURFACE IS CLEAN of the old gasket.

How do you take the intake manifold off a 2001 Kia sportage?
The removal and reinstallation of an intake manifold on this FWD transverse application is of Êhigh difficulty. The first steps are disconnecting wiring harnesses, and brackets obstructing the manifold bolts. Once the manifold bolts are off, the factory gaskets should be removed and surfaces cleaned off. The manifold can be run through a parts cleaner to dissolve carbon deposits. The new gasket and sealer as needed should be applied. The manifold can be replaced and re-torqued. The final steps are reconnecting wiring harnesses, restarting and checking for leaks.
What would causes an oil leak at the gasket for the distributor after replaceing head and intake gaskets did not have this problem before?
If your sure that it is leaking around the distributor then replace the distributor gasket or O-ring. It could also be leaking oil out of the back of the intake manifold. Gasket or sealer may have moved while tighting the intake bolts. Could be coming from the oil sending unit behind the distributor too.
What could be leaking coolant between the valve cover and intake manifold on the left front since it sits sideways side of 2001 Pontiac grand prix supercharged 3.8 L engine?
Some bolts pass thru the water jacket so if you don't put sealer on the bolts the coolant can climb up the threads and puddle on the intake. I have removed them one at a time , cleaned the threads and reinstalled them with sealer and this fixed the problem. The dissimilar metals of the aluminum intake manifold and cast iron block have different expansion rates and eventually the lower intake manifold gasket will fail. All the bolts are not accessable without removing the supercharger. These bolts have a specific torque value and tightening sequence. Do the job right and remove the supercharger and intake manifold. Replace the gasket and reinstall the intake manifold using a thread sealer. Torque the bolts to 11 foot pounds and in the proper sequence. Coolant can leak internally into the engine, treat the problem not just the symptom. Hope this helps. "G"
Small antifreeze leak behind the right side exhaust manifold and can not see where it could be coming from Any Ideas?
its coming fron the engine Had the same issue and while yes it is from the engine not sure if there is anitifreeze anywhere else :) The source was the lower intake manifold gasket was leaking, common on this engine... I was lucky and it did not leak into the oil. The gasket does not cover the front and rear of the block, that is where the bead of gasket sealer runs up the angle to the gasket. Where the manifold meets the block at the angle is prone to leak. Took me a day to do but I was in no hurry. Hope that helps
