hey Guys,
I have small problem with my moms 97 GT. Seems to have an intake leak. How I know this? First you can here a huge vacume leak, second, the engine light comes on and when I pulled the codes it show a lean condition in both banks 1 and 2. The stang has had the recal done on the intake manifold but when the original one failed it was on the coolent side.
My question is if this is a know problem. I have taken the intake out and to me the intake looks good with no cracks and gaskets looked good also. I have all new gaskets but I was wondering if I should replace the intake also. What I'm trying to get at is that there may be a hairline crack that is hard to see or find.
Thanks in advance for your input,
Matt
