Hello, My Nissan 2000 Altima with 97000 miles on it, is running and sounding like a lawn more I have changed spark plugs , spark plug wires, Distributor cap and Distributor Rotor, I am a student with limited amount of money, any help from you smart people will help me to focus on my schooling. I have seen few articles mentioning problem with Nissan 2000 intake manifold gasket leaking, please help if you can.

need a little more info. intake gaskets normally leak at #4 intake runner, but no noises from them. is it at the front of the engine? does it sound like and exhaust leak? or maybe a metallic noise?

does it only sound really bad? is the sound accompanied by a shake at all?

the easiest way to tell if it is an intake leak, and it is very easy to do....
find ur intake manifold, and while the car is running, spray wd-40, or brake clean around ur intake, and listen for the noise to clear up, if it does, this means u have a leak. what is hapening is ur intake gasket, which seals the intake, is sucking air in, which isnt good. by spraying wd-40, u TEMPORARILY seal the leak with w/e u are sprayin.

understand??
ne questions, let me know
