I used this trick for reinstallation when I did my plugs a couple months back. It's great because unlike a socket and extension you can't accidentally crossthread the plug, if it's not aligned right it'll just slip in the tubing.

I drove an E34 BMW V8 for years and did a lot of DiY work on it. The engine is extremely sensitive to vacuum leaks, and a total intake manifold gasket replacement job is pretty much a given at 150K. The PCV plate at the back of the manifold is usually done by then as well.

Check the idle control valve (located right above the throttle body,) sometimes it gets gummed up and stuck open, and a little shot of brake cleaner in it should free it up, a quick test would be rotate the unit back and forth and side to side you should hear a little throttle door flapping away.

Loved the trolling by Lauren. It was right on point. I remember you saying you couldn't find a proper hand wash to remove oil. Try this: get some saw dust ( check it doesn't have wood splinters), start soaping your hands and add some saw dust. Most of the oil and grease will come out ( use some soft bristles brush for the fingers and under the nails). You'll be happy with the results. Happy belated Birthday. Have yourself a great day.

I broke the resonator chamber/elbow on my 96 Jag XJ6L. I tried to glue it back, I broke it again. I looked online and eBay sellers wanted $150. I went to my local Import Yard and picked up the MAF and intake duct for $75. In the meantime a used electrical tape and super glue to seal the whole in the intake. It worked! I drove it that way for about a week before I fixed it. So Ray is right, it will work in the short term but it's worth fixing it the rightway especially if you got a salvage yard nearby.

I did the electrical tape thing on an '86 Mustang SVO's intake corrugation. The 'inside'(?) part of the corrugation had a split for no real reason I could determine because otherwise the part was just fine and flexible. So I taped up that corrugation across the split, over the humps, and multiple layers. Ran it like that for... what... 3 years I guess. Never an issue, then the car was traded in later on. Never heard about it again, but I like to think in THAT case... it's permanent and good. But don't do that at home, kids, it's Not Right(tm).

Ray, have you tried the propane trick for diagnosis of an intake leak? The same trick works with wd40 or other flammable sprays. If while idling you point the hose from a propane source or spray around the intake and if the idle goes up you found a leak.

The better version is using brake clean because you can't really put a torch in many intake runner areas especially on the V engines

Gotta love it !! This is why I watch so many of Rainman Ray's videos. Ray : Let's find the right size plug to fit these holes........There, that's one... Also Ray : After killing mosquito and searching, trying every size left in vain, Grabs the bag the plugs came in - SHOVES BAG IN HOLE.....There, that's the other one. And As A Special Bonus: Wife Unit eradicates Rainman with a haunting sound from the distant past. Sending our hero into a blinding rage, running for the hills in a futile attempt to maintain his sanity !!
