This in a completely original 115k mile engine, with a re-ring at 77k. Nothing is broke, stripped, or cracked at this time. I don't want to start messing with something that is a low probability fail and wind up with damage to one of the manifolds. What is your experience with this gasket? Thanks for your help.
