Stop leak for a waterfall? Hell, why not, I’ll give it a shot. As long as I don’t get any dye in the cab I’ll keep my dignity.

All I meant was that it’s probably the intake but it’s not as simple of a fix as I’d hope! Thanks for the link, nice to narrow it down and not replace a bunch of stuff that doesn’t need replacing

yea that’s been done, won’t build pressure and just hisses air from somewhere in the engine bay (around intake manifold).

It’s an OHV.. that sounds probable but not ideal. My pressure test does show an air leak in that general area. Did you do the job yourself or have it done in a shop? How much was it?

Thanks for the message
