Hey all, I just replaced my cracked exhaust manifold with an apn header and now im having an issue with a manifold leak. I though maybey the gasket was the issue so I went and bought another new gasket, took it apart, and replaced it for the second time today. The leak is right underneath the first upper bolt in the front of the vehicle. Ive tightened, and retightened, and then again but the lowest I can get it to idle is about 1k. It idled perfectly before I swapped in the new header, but the ports were pretty gunked up so im wondering if all the goo I cleaned off was actually sealing it up. Anyone had this issue and if so what did it take to fix it? Its on a 97 4.0 5spd in case your wondering....thanks.
