Intake manifold question

Post by trentonsuncle@msn.com »

Ok guys i need some real help here. i took my intake manifold off and cleaned it then i put it back on and now my car will not start. its getting spark and everything. Do i ABSOLUTLY HAVE to replace the intake manifold gasket? people told me i HAVE to and others said i didnt. Would that cause the car not to start. Help me out guys

a leak can cause can make the car won't start..My suggesion is start checking for leaks..or did you forgot to plug something (like fuel lines) when you put the manifold back on ?

Did you put the fuel lines on correctly? It is likely that you reversed the feel and return lines.
