#1 Twin SU intake/exhaust manifold gasket on A14
daboom Posted on: 2010/6/21 19:19
I have the twin Hitachi SU setup on my A14 with the coolant running through the intake manifold and into the cylinder head. I replaced the manifold gasket with one I made over 8yrs ago and it finally spung a leak! It was supposed to be a temporary fix.

Does anyone have a source for these gaskets? They look like this, though I think the GX is for the A12, not the A14.

If it is for the A14T (twin carb) engine, simply use a stock A14 late-model gasket (H89)

The GX engine has a much bigger manifold and ports than the A14T.

Once again, thank you ddgonzal.

I'm going to have to order that one from a Nissan dealers in the US. They can get it here in Canada, but only from Japan and that takes fooorreeevveer.

I had just driven my car down to and back from Seattle this weekend. It's a miracle I didn't breakdown on the I5. Instead, it just started to overheat less than a block from my house! Seattle was lovely, btw, except for the thundershower Saturday morning. :)
