Ever since I've owned my 91, my intake has always leaked coolant. I've taken it off about 6 times now, and I am done screwing with it. So, today I just ordered (since I didn't go to school) an intake stud kit...http://www.toyotacatalog.net/M1WebGe...F-A30DA2D8C612 So, hopefully this will fix my leaky intake. What do you think?

 

might help... might not.
have you checked the intake and head for warpage?
where on the intake is it leaking from?

 

Head has been checked, and I replaced the intake. So I've had two different intakes on the truck. Its leaking at the way front. At the bottom. Its a slow leak and kinda pours down my engine...but I'm constantly losing antifreeze.

There should only be one possible place it can leak from...where the thermstat housing on the intake meets the head in the shape of a square. lol.

I think when it warms up I'm taking my engine apart again...and see why i'm buring oil too and possibly re-ring it.

 

actually, there are 3 coolant passages into the intake from the head but who's counting?

 

did you use any type of sealant on the gasket?

 

Yes, I did use sealant. I put sealant all around the main water passage. And I used an OEM gasket.
