No, You don't put anything on Head, Exahust or intake gaskets. CJ
actually you do put a 1/8'th inch bead of black silicone on the gasket to ensure no leaks occur and it also helps hold the gasket in place when your putting the intake manifold on. I'm a ford master technician, you ALWAYS use silicone when replacing intake and head gaskets.

Will adding a 40 cfm fan at the airbox below the filter help increase air intake in a car engine?
It will help at slow speeds but will hinder the air flow at high speeds. GoodluckJoe

A stuck fuel injector or shorted computer fuel injector driver transistor will flood cylinder and cause a miss while driving and a dump of fuel into the cylinder after shutdown.if oil is smelling like gas, the engine is not burning all gas if older car, the rings are probly worn and gas is seeping past pistons when engine is shut downHow to change cabin air filter on 2007 Toyota Avalon?
From http://townhall-talk.edmunds.com/direct/view/.ef2150b/14023: Drop the glovebox down. This involves removing the little "shock" on one side and then squeezing in the sides of the door while pulling down. The door will swing down far enough so you have access to the filter. Look for a panel or door about 2 x 8 inches and the filter is in there. Squeeze the tabs on the side of the plastic filter cover and remove the cover. Then slide out the filter.

The idle air control valve is what is being tightened. If the valve is tighten and the idle is still erratic there is a leak somewhere. Take the IACV out and have it cleaned. Also check the vacuum lines on the car.
How do you change the 3rd brake light on a Honda Pilot?
If you look at the middle brake light, you'll notice two (2) notches on the left and right of the light. (This is looking at the brake light from the outside of the car, not the inside of the hatch.) Using a flathead screwdriver, pry the two screw covers off (they are plastic just like the rest of the brake light cover). Unscrew the screws and presto, you find the back to the light...you should be good from this point.
Additional Information:
Applies to: 2003-2008 Model Years only.
The two screw covers (notches mentioned above) are integrated into the brake light itself on each side but can be pried of using just fingers if needed exposing two (8 x 1") Phillips screws that, when backed out allow you to pull out the entire third brake light (CHMSL) assembly out of the roof spoiler. The bulb is a 921 incandescent bulb in a twist-lock socket. Since this bulb is inserted on a severe (almost 90degree) angle, a replacement incandescent or a 921 LED bulb that has a 360 degree pattern would work well, even if it is longer than the standard 921 bulb.
I'm posting and answering this question because it took *forever* to find an online source with the repair to this common problem!
At the base of the 2000 Ford Focus air filter housing, there are four circular "nuts" which the corner bolts thread through to tighten down the top. It seems these can come loose from the plastic "sleeve" which held them secure from the factory -- when that happens, they just spin when you try to remove the bolts and change the air filter. There is very little room around the box to get at the bottom and hold onto them as they spin, and they aren't true nuts with a hex edge so it's very hard to get a grip on them. My first thought was to remove the battery which would allow more access to the front two, but the fuse box is up against the back two so that wouldn't do much good.
Here's the fix... Remove the hose clamp at the top and wiggle the air hose off. There is also a small sensor that just clips onto the top of the housing, and a small hose on the lower left side (it leads into a small compartment with a breather element). When you clear those three things, pull straight up on the air filter housing. It should pull right up and out; don't wiggle it too much back and forth because there are three plastic pieces which extend from the bottom and are loosley seated into rubber gaskets.
Once you pull it out you can get a socket onto the top of the bolt, and some needle-nose pliers or small channel locks onto the rounded nut. I used a good amount of WD40, and found that going tighten-loosen-tighten-loosen a few times was the trick to freeing the bolts up for removal.
Good luck!
Note: if the round nut still spins with the needle nose plier, you will need Vise grips to lock down the nut. In order to get the mouth of the Vise grips around the nut, use the needle nose plier which failed earlier to break the gussets that are molded into the box which flank both sides of the nut. Make sure the teeth of the vise grip bite into the nut (parallel to nut, perpendicular to bolt).

How do you change the cabin air filter in a 2000 Toyota 4runner?
On my 2003 4Runner and my 2008 Tundra it's directly behind the glove box. Remove the glove box and you will see a long narrow door. The filter is behind it. Instructions came with my new cabin filter when I bought it from a auto store. ($28)
Yours may be in the same place.
Will a stop leak fix a antifreeze leak by the intake manifold?
NO additives are recommended by any good mechanics. Only the full repair is best especially whem dealing with coolant leaks. Usually intake leaks are from years of corrosion the coolant will turn to acid in most oif todays cars if not treated you will have much internal damage. the external leaks will only show up when damage is done. Dont write off the vehicle it ,will be much cheaper to repair than pay the extra cost for insurance ,interest loss of value for new cars.....
How do you replace VW Golf Cabin Air Filter?
Open the bonnet and you will see a rubber seal running accross the bulk head (Close and parallel to the windscrean) On the passenger side (Right hand drive car) there is a plastic cover with 4 screws holding it in place right behind the rubber seal. Pull the rubber seal up, remove the 4 screws and pull the plastic pannel off. You will see the old cabin air filter behind it. You need to use a flat bladed screwdriver to release the plastic cover holding the air filter in place. Swap the filter for a new one and reverse the process. (Note this is for a Mk 4 golf)
How do you change the air filter on a 2004 Chrysler Sebring with 2.7 liter engine?
It ain't easy.. My hand is bleeding, but I did it. Remove the nut on the top left of the housing completely. (hint : Before continuing, locate and loosen the hose clamp screw going from the rear of the filter housing to the intake on the engine, sliding the hose off the intake) Lift (filter) housing away from stem. On the air hose leading into the housing, pull back the tabs and pull housing UP and out toward you. A lot of wiggling required (hint: if you followed the hint above, a lot less wiggling is required - it pulls up and out pretty easily, and don't forget to un-clip the wires on the left of the housing). The filter is a cone shaped blue and white thing sticking into the housing. Good luck!
4.3L engine knocks after intake manifold gaskets were replaced?
Been a tech for quite some time now and I find this to be most accurate: my best answer is....so go, some blow. Unfortunately if it were and internal coolant leak that prompted the replacement of the intake gaskets, it was not caught in time and 'washed out" the crank bearings. Sorry for the bad luck, but it is now beyond repair.
