Leak at intake manifold
INTAKE MANIFOLD! i took the dang thing off 2 times today and first time i replaced gasket. it started leakin out bottom, i was leakin at egr the first place so thats why i did it. now i did it again, the second bolt in on the bottom, is it suppose to be super short? the stud and nut is fine, then there is a bolt that isnt even holding the manifold on, its just like a plug for coolant flow. Why is it leakin.... i used about a inch long bolt and i am sure its the right one.... any info plz help

What kind of leak are we talking about here? And from where on the bottom?

lemme explain again.... there is a bolt under the intake manifold, that bolts where the gasket is mounted, but it doesnt hold the manifold on, its leaking coolant. what type of bolt is needed?? it makes no sense to me..

If it does not go to the manifold then what is it mounting to the head? Too hard to tell from the picture.
Are you absolutely sure its not leaking from above and just dripping down to that bolt?
