Description of the problem | My car started smoking by the manifold gaskets upon me starting it.. I left it parked in driveway appox 2 -3 weeks , while i drove my 2nd vehicle... This is the second time i had this problem whenever my vehicle sits 2- 4 weeks ... This do not make sense to my cus it had no problems before i parked it.. Its obvious i can't drive 2 vehicles at the same time however everytime it its for 2-4 weeks i shouldn't have to replace the manifold gasket either.. Thiis have happen to me and a few of my neighbors as well.. |
