New Intake Manifold Gasket -- What Else Should I Do While It's Off 200 1983

Have you replaced/repaired the wiring harness?

The ECT sender (talks to the ECU, not the gauge) is accessable easiest with the oil box and throttle body off, could be easy with the intake manifold off. Have a look.

BTW - the oil box and other PCV hoses were redesigned beginning with the 1988 models. Puts the flame trap above the intake manifold between rail #3 and #4. Using it required wiring harness to get below the-manifold rear of rail #4.

Others who have not purchased the relocation kit can go this route. The taller oil box bolts right on.

That's all I can think of right now.

Regards,

Bob
