Hello all. Hope you all are enjoying some quality time in the garage. I’m trying to get the Pontiac running.........better. Cold starts this thing screams and won’t shut off if I cover the carb. Gave me a hint that I could have an intake leak, which I did...... sprayed cylinders 5 and 7 with a squirt of gas and rpm went up. I tore down to replace and found an open path in one of the vacuum lines, I was wondering
1. what is this? And what is it for?
and
2. How can I get a better seal on the intake gasket. I put this one on last summer. When it’s cold it leaks but it gets a little better as the car gets hot.
My truck is diesel and gas is below 2$ a gallon here just outside detroit so the Pontiac will get the call to service this summer.
