Today I finished the seal replacement on the water manifold with good success.
In order to get to that I had to remove the IM.
I refitted the IM with a new gasket but it's leaking from cyl 1 to 5.
It doesn't make sense, does it need to set for a while?
The bolts were tightened to 20 Nm.
The mating surfaces on IM and head were carefully freed of old gasket remnants.
I just don't understand were I went wrong.
Should the bolts be tightened in some particular order?
Don't remember how I did it when I first built the engine.
Need to pull the IM again tomorrow but it would be nice to know what in the heck I did wrong.
