Re: Miss at Idle

One method I have used to locate intake manifold leaks was to spray wd40 on the joints while the engine is at idle. Theory is the idle will change when you spray on the spot where the leak is. I did this on a slant 6 years ago that was a 'driver' I don't think it would make too much mess on a clean packard engine since most of the wd40 (or some light spray oil) evaporates pretty quickly. I don't know how else or a better way you can 'KNOW' where your intake is leaking.
