First off, I just inherited an intake manifold. Was wondering if someone could identify it. The person I got it from said they were told it was from an AMC and I was the only one he knew with AMC's. The number on the manifold appears to be 3176990.
And more on the 1984 Eagle. I went and looked at it today. It is the Eagle Limited. Has power seats, power windows. There is one control on the drivers door for both mirrors. There is a small air compressor under the hood. He said it is for air shocks. It has a 3 position switch, Off, Auto and I think the third was Accessory.
Now a couple questions. It sounds like there is an exhaust leak somewhere under the manifolds. Is there a common place that the exhaust system comes loose or starts leaking? Is there any problem with the exhaust manifolds breaking on these? I am just trying to get an idea of what I may be getting into to fix it if I buy it. Also, the heater core leaks. What is involved in replacing the heater core? The valve cover gasket leaks. He already has a replacement but I have found there are 2 listed. One is cork (about $10) and the other is rubber (about $35). Is one better than the other?
