Excellent work. These videos are great. I like that you took the time to show which tools would be needed. It's a nice touch that most channels don't bother to do.

[@ManinaGarage]

With luck people will be able to use these videos to save money and stress, I'm glad you like them. Thank you very much for watching 🤘😎 Progress has been made... kzbin.info/www/bejne/pJvdqKdsrb6Hjqs

I never would have thought that those manifolds were identical. Clever you!

[@ManinaGarage]

It was a head twister at first, who knew 😂🤣 Thank you for watching 😎🤘

[@edwardmigliore6484]

Great suggestion to smoke test the engine before putting it back in the car! I will definitely be doing this once my engine is (finally) ready. Thanks for the video - always fun and educational!

[@ManinaGarage]

Thank you for watching Edward 🤘😎 It turns out that the intake manifold adapter does need a new O-Ring BINGO!

[@YogisGarage]

Vacuum test BEFORE I put my engine back in, got it! Thanks for the plug, Finn! 8nm is the torque spec.

[@ManinaGarage]

Thank you for the Torque spec Yogi! 🙌 If only I knew about the Vacuum test BEFORE putting the engine in 🤓 Thank you very much for watching 🤘😎 Progress has been made... kzbin.info/www/bejne/pJvdqKdsrb6Hjqs

[@jobytapia6388]

the intake manifold blank has an o-ring on it...is it possible that there is a missing o-ring on the intake manifold side?

[@the1beard]

I think you are correct was thinking exactly the same 👍

[@ManinaGarage]

You guys are right 🙌 the old gasket was still on there but looked and felt like it was part of the manifold piece. A viewer sent me the part number, we will revisit this in a future episode. Thanks dudes 🤘😎

[@jobytapia6388]

So good! That engine is going to be better than new pretty soon!

[@ManinaGarage]

@@jobytapia6388 there have been updates! I shot a new channel members video last night. Thank you for being a part of this 🤘😎

Ladies is techs, too, huh? Liked. Subscribed.

Hoping to keep training them up! 🤩 Thank you for watching Marv 🤘😎

[@aboyandhisdog]

Beautiful! Is it a fair statement to say that removing those intake manifolds would be impossible with the engine in the car? I can't imagine trying to get to some of those parts with the engine in the car.

[@markkearns7113]

I have a 3.4 996. I removed all of that stuff with the engine in the car. It’s tight in there but wasn’t that bad. A little tip use some of the windshield adhesive and carefully on the vacuum connection at the back of the resonator, glue the vacuum hose on. Keeps it from slipping off if your working in there and accidentally pull on that vacuum line it will slip right off. Reattaching it is a pain in the ass.

[@ManinaGarage]

Allegedly they can be removed with the engine in the car 😲 Could someone please design a quick mount engine system for these cars, engine removal in 10 minutes? 🙏 Thank you for watching Tom 🤘😎

What was the car doing because of the vacuum leak ?

[@ManinaGarage]

Running rough! Thank you for watching! 🤘😎

[@08ms3red]

@@ManinaGarage I am getting some misfires I just replaced the coils and the plugs but we noticed it leaking at the same spot if this. Could this problem with the vacuum leak cause if to misfire?

[@ManinaGarage]

@@08ms3red Definitely, especially at idle.

[@08ms3red]

@@ManinaGarage what tape did you use to seal the leak

[@ManinaGarage]

@@08ms3red Do I use tape to fix the leak?

[@meirschwartz8554]

You are missing the O-ring.

[@ManinaGarage]

Hello Meir, Are you saying that from the factory there is an O-ring on the inside of the Intake Manifold Adapter? Is it like the one I improvised at 6:44 in episode 55? kzbin.info/www/bejne/g3-VYWmZarxkipI Thank you for your help! 🙌

[@meirschwartz8554]

Yes Sir. the part number (that was also updated) is 99970116341

[@meirschwartz8554]

BTW. at 6:42 you can see the original black O-ring. That's how it looks after many years of being squashed.

[@ManinaGarage]

@@meirschwartz8554 🤣😅🤣😅 That’s awesome! Thank you very much. The O-ring was as hard as the plastic it was stuck to, I thought it was part of the manifold adapter mounding! 😲 Even the Porsche parts department where convinced that it does not come with or need an O-ring , let’s see what they say now! I really appreciate you solving the riddle. Thank you for watching🤘😎

[@miketdavies]

Nice catch! I was scratching my head about to take mine off again to look at it.

[@arnoldmosk494]

You overtightened the adapter to the manifold and that‘s the reason for your leak problem!!

[@ManinaGarage]

Hello Arnold, One of the intake cuffs had a gap causing a vacuum leak, pilot error from assembly 😅. Thank you very much for watching 🤘😎 Progress has been made... kzbin.info/www/bejne/pJvdqKdsrb6Hjqs
