    So, I'd had it up to my eyeballs with carb tuning issues, and decided, you know, how 'bout I do something drastic? Removing intake boots is pretty drastic, why not?

    2 of the gaskets looked ok, but after 24+ years, I think it's about time I got new ones all around.

    O rings look pretty dodgy too... why doesn't chacal live next door to me?

    Thanks Rick. I think it was you what said I should check my intake gaskets.

    And boy, were they bad.

    U brave brave sole hehe... I haven't had the guts to try and remove mine for fear of breaking them off and having no vehicle left to get to work with.

    One of these days probably winter when I hopefully find a winter beater to get me by. I will maybe give it a go. But maybe not.
