Armando Posted July 24 Report Share Posted July 24 I'm about to change my 1985 Nissan 720 exhaust manifold gasket 2.4. My question: Is it a one piece gasket or two separate gaskets. And if any one can post a pic of the gasket or gaskets just to make certain I order the right ones Thanks Quote Link to comment
Logical1 Posted July 24 Report Share Posted July 24 The exhaust uses two gaskets: 1 Quote Link to comment
NC85ST Posted July 25 Report Share Posted July 25 If you’re hearing an exhaust leak, thus the reason for replacing the gaskets, it’s probably a cracked manifold. It’s a real common issue and the crack is on the back side so you can’t see it. 1 Quote Link to comment

You have about 7 to 10 seconds when the manifold is cold, to start it up and reach around the back with your hand and feel for a leak. I've done this before. Quote Link to comment
