ddeford Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 1971 240 with SU's/header -- Coolant Water mist sprays out between my intake manifold and head -- Weird. A bit of acceleration and it becomes a little geyser. It is betwwen the number 4 exhaust and intake runners and has actually made a hole in my manifold gasket. Could it be a leak inside the intake manifold? There is a water passage there. Please help!!! Thanks!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevlars30z Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 the best thing to do is to take your head off. there mite be a rip in the gasket. when you put the head back on make sure you tighten the head bolts the correct pounds. hope that helped some bit. good luck man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
