Intake Manifold
What kind of lube do I need to put on a new gasket for the upper intake manifold in a 97 Jetta 2.0?
The gasket between the upper intake manifold and the lower intake manifold. Is there a special lube that I need to use?
I use Hi-tack spray. spray a little on the manifold and a little on the gasket.Let it dry, and put the gasket on to the manifold. then spray the top of the gasket and the upper manifold. let it dry and assemble.
remember the only thing that gasket seals is vacuum air, there is no fuel at that gasket. make sure to follow proper torque procedures
One of the most popular performance upgrades for your car today is to install a custom air intake. The thing most don't realize is whether you are trying to make your car faster or just save gas this is one of the easiest modifications available.
There are two types of custom air intakes:
You would choose your type of intake depending on the tempature where you live. If it's hot outside then you would want to use the cold air intake, and if it's cold outside you would use the short ram intake. The reason for this is you want cold air going in to the engine, the colder the air the better the performance, to a point. If you live in freezing tempature then that's a little to cold and you would want to use the short ram system.With the cold air intake the idea is to draw in air as far away from the motor as possible to get the coldest air possible. With the short ram intake you want to draw your air from near the engine where it's a little warmer.
So with cooler air we get better performance, but there is another benifit! When car manufactures build a car they want it to be as quite as possible, and how they do this is reduce the air flow and run it through lengths of tubing. So by removing the OEM air box and intake tube and replacing it with a K&N or Spectre intake tube and cone filter you make it easier for your car to breathe.
I know I said this is for everyone and you are thinking I don't care about performance I want gas mileage! Well, if the engine performs better and doesn't have to work as hard, in turn it will use less gas to power itself.
AND, on top of all this the different types of intake tubes and filter they have available giver your engine a personalized custom look that anyone can appreciate.

The term latent typically refers to something that is dormant, not observable, or not yet realized. Demand is the notion of an economic quantity that a target population or market requires under different assumptions of price, quality, and distribution, among other factors. Latent demand, therefore, is commonly def... |
