    intake leak

    HI everyone, I have a 46 Chief that had a hot start issue , after reading possible problems on AMCA I new what the problem was. An intake leak.Thanks to Cotton I bought one of his pressure testers and found my leak. After seeing my manifold was bad I purchased a new manifold and peek seals, retested , all good now .Now waiting for good weather for a test ride .Thank you to Mr Cotton. the right tools makes life easier .

    You're welcome, Gator1!

    But since I only cut a three-bolt testplate for you, and not your PEEK seals (unless it was some time ago?), please re-snug often until it takes a "set".

    And please test again if any tuning difficulties arise... ..

    Happy to help when I can,
