I bought a second set of cometic intake gaskets after having my first set fail. It develop a vacuum leak that was throwing the AFRs haywire and oil was being sucked in as well.
Now, these gaskets state that retorque and additional sealants aren’t required, except in a street application a slight RTV around the water ports is recommended. So I didn’t retorqued or used Gasgacinch, but I did use some RTV. I tried to retorque after driving for a while, but it actually got worse.
Has anyone used them successfully? Should I use Gasgacinch and retorque even does it says is not needed?
Thanks in advance for any input.
