Seldom, if ever, do i see a bad intake. On the older aluminum V-8 intakes in the oldsmobile engines they used a steel intake gasket and the steel would corrode pits into the sealing surface which caused antifreeze leaks.
Most of the troubles that i see with intakes are with the intake gaskets going bad or with vacumn leaks caused by split vacumn hoses or a leaking intake gasket.
If the intake manifold gasket has failed then it can cause many issues. Air leaks, known as vacuum leaks, will cause an erratic idle, stalling, and fuel problems.
Not changing the transmission fluid in a car within 200K would cause problems.
NO it will not, It will cause other problems like stoping up the heater core and radiator. You MUST replace the intake gaskets.
YES, That would be called a vacuum leak.
not exactly it will cause a vaccume leak and therfore cause the computer to compensate but not directly hurt the fuel injectors
Yes, it can cause hard starting.
Yep, will not start.
Dead battery, car will not start
THE CAUSE COULD BE A STUCK THERMOSTAT , OR A BLOWN HEAD GASKET, OR A LEAK IN THE INTAKE MANIFOLD OR INTAKE MANIFLOD GASKET. A CRACK IN THE INTAKE MANIFOLD IS VERY COMMON.. NORTY
traffic accidents are the main cause of spinal problems so i'd have to say yeah its very possible
Probably not, although it could lead to other problems which would cause your car not to start.
Friction causes wear and tear.
