Howdy People,

I have been having some problems with manifold gasket bolts working themselves loose every now and then (especially after very enthusiastic driving on the tunnel runs :hehe:)

Are there replacements that I can get hold of that arent so succeptable to undoing due to vibration? I am 99% sure the gasket itself is fine as it was replaced about 9mths ago.

Thanks v much

Corey

Do you have "sprung washers" fitted with the bolts? I'm not sure, but I guess this is why mine don't vibrate loose.

Also, at risk of stating the bleedin' obvious, have you tried using a suitable threadlock?
