[DML] Re: Engine vacuum problems?

["stainlessilusion" <5n-@xxxxxxx>]

The hose going to the booster is the one I'm removing in order to 
hook up the gauge. You say make sure the intake is properly 
positioned, all I'm doing is resting the intake down and putting the 
bolts in finger tight-and then torque them. Is there something I'm 
missing? Which reminds me, is there a sequence for the intake? Is it 
possible for the intake to warp? I'm not sure how to make sure the 
intake is sealing other then the starting spray method. Thanks for 
the help -----Dani B. #5003
