The intake manifold gasket may develop and external engine oil or coolant leak. In some cases, an internal coolant leak may occur causing coolant to mix with the engine oil. Running the engine with a coolant/oil mix may result in engine damage. Replacing the intake manifold gasket should correct this issue.

  • I have gotten a leak from the radiator and the intake gasket (outside) Radiator repaired and hoses . Did not bother with the small leak of the intake manifold
