Thanks again for your expert advice. I have a leaky intake manifold gasket. I torqued to 30 lbs., but I guess the aluminum to aluminum contact needs a re-torque right after the initial start up. All of the intake bolts were very loose. I tried to just re-torque them, but the leak is still there. Looks like a need to pull the intake and start over.
This learning process is not as fun as thought it would be. I just have to focus on how fun it will be after I get everything running right.
