Q: so if it is a manifold problem whats the procedure pull the manifold and look for the leak. thats what id do. fix the plenum gasket while you have the manifold apart remove the plenum pan and replace the factory gasket with a bead of rtv - theyre known to leak oil into the intake as well. id replace the bypass hose at this time since more often than not you wind up destroying it to get the manifold off. a new thermostat is standard procedure as well. id also change the upper and lower radiator hoses if theyre older than 30k miles or so... all this stuff is easily done when the manifold is off since youre draining the coolant anyway. that would need to be replaced. is a cracked manifold a fairly common occurance not really - unless it was removed/replaced once before and not torqued properly. the engine has 185m miles on it. thats impressive. you drive it to the sun and back the culpret and they get replaced what about the coolant thats in the cylinders will that burn off if the engine finally starts or is there a way to dry out the cylinders short of removing the heads after fixing the problem and changing the oil and plugs - theyre cheap start it up and any remaining coolant will promptly burn off. drive it for a bit then change the oil once more to get rid of any residual coolant. .
