Anyone know a bandaid for a tiny leak on an intake manifold.  I have a tiny leak right in the front my truck isn't worth fixing it still runs pretty good but thought it might be sucking a little air and I see a little coolant bubbling out.  I know I should just place the gasket but that a lot of work for a beat up old truck.

No that might work but would suck if I did ever try to pull off the intake manifold.  It is a very tiny leak it barley bubbles out.  Was thinking about using stop leak in my coolant.

that stop leak stuff is a bad idea.. I watched my friends escort go up in smoke from it.

it is the gasket leaking?.... I thought maybe you had a crack in it. It shouldn't be that hard to replace. NOt sure any kind of sealants would be reliable enough to try...that wouldn't be a huge hassle to clean up.

True I should just get off my ass and replace it but I would rather spend my time working on my four wheelers.
