Sweating intake manifold gasket.

H22A4 said

Also, to properly torque the 4 manifold bolts around the base of the carb plenum, purchase a 3/8” drive 9/16” torque adaptor (Proto 5118). It also prevented me from removing the distributor as I used it to remove/install the intake manifold bolt closest to the firewall that also holds the throttle cable bracket.

Great tip! Will do this. Thank you.

As H22A4 pointed out its Canada Day so all the shops are closed. Dang!!

Ugh, this is so sad... Finished the build, broke in the engine and now I cant get the gasket in time before I have to hit the road for work for three weeks!

Thank you everyone. You always save the Duster from myself.
