My '50 chevy truck has had a exaust manifold gasket leak for a while. I was off all last week so I put in a new gasket. Still leaked. Ordered a new gasket and this time used high heat gasket maker and put it only around the exaust ports, not the intake ports as it is not gasoline safe. Now the damn thing does not want to start and when it does will not keep running. Thinking that I have an intake leak I ordered another gasket and tried again installing it yesterday but could not finish because the carb to manifold gasket ripped and no one has it in stock. Now my vacation is over and it will have to wait. I should have just left the exaust leak alone.
I thought old cars were supposed to be easy to work on
