On the intake pre-heater I have a boost leak around there so I bought new gaskets. When I installed the new gaskets I put down a gasket, then pre heater, then the other gasket, then the strap, the torqued down the intake. Is that right or does the strap touch the pre heater then gasket goes on top? It still leaks a little even with the new gaskets.

 

intake/gasket/grid heater/gasket/intake/strap i believe. That's how it is on most the 24 v's I work on.

 

So the strap goes on the very bottom then. I'll re-arrange it tomorrow and hopefully it'll fix my little leak. Thanks

 

no no no! that was from the bottom up! Strap will be on the top and the bolt will run through it. It should not be sandwiched between any componants.

 

Thanks J body, moving it fixed the leak. Truck runs much better now
