Ok so my intake manifold cracked and was pissing radiator fluid like cool. I sealed it with some RTV just enough to get To the shop and back. Im haveing extreme vibrations now and accelleration struggle. Is this Typical when the manifold cracks? Or is it another problem because of it. The manifold gets replaced this week just want to know if i will be looking at onset problems.

When my intake cracked, soon after i needed plugs and wires. Depends on where the coolent goes. It ran into a couple of the plug wells and such.

So your proably just experiencing a v. bad misfire. Im sure the check engine light will come if you drive it like that(after the swap i mean).

your car is missing. Just take it easy untill the intake gets swapped out. When mine was cracked it did the same thing.

yeah it can cause the other issues you are having.. mostly because the coolant probally traveled down into the plug wells.

Man you must think i am lying to you. I have already told you this.

As other's have already said, it's more than likely caused from coolent leaking into the plug holes or perhaps the coolent spray drowned one of the copps.

I was just messing with you anyways.. You really should get that manifold fixed before you overheat or cause more damage with the misfires
