If he for some reason welded something on the intake manifold, I can't figure out what it'd be.

The thing is I haven't even talked directly with the dealership. I've been getting all my info through my dad since Im always working and can't go in. But Im just gonna call them today.

And the intake manifold is from a 01 tarus. The escape uim and lim wouldn't fit since they are to tall.

But Ford said that the whole intake manifold was permenantly welded to the block...I just don't understand that. The bolts hold it on not a weld.

And I didn't go to autozone because I got the car toad in to the dealership but made sure to tell them everything that it had. And they did the old "oh no problem we'll take a look at it" And then next day they call back and say its gonna blow up. It just seems like they should be able to find the leak. Thats all I wanted them to do...I'll update this after I call them later today.
