And you are arguing a technical point for some sake other than helping the original poster. I tried to end it on nice note. You are making that very difficult.

You took exception to my note that readings could be screwy. You wrote it in a way that suggested that I didn't know "stuff" from shinola, in that you wanted me to explain "how" to you and "everyone else". Nobody else asked. So I explained it three ways to Sunday for you. If you refuse to accept that two reasonable adults can have valid but differing views, then I can't help you there.

I have a difference of opinion with you, and will not back off from that. The engineers did not put a gasket there (two actually) because they were bored and had extra material. They put them there because cross venting could lead to poor running, and because prolonged, and I emphasis the word prolonged, cross venting and poor running could lead to damage, such as but not limited to burnt valves. I've already indicated that I don't think this necessarily applies to francois's problem, but you want to hammer the point that this is not possible for reasons that only you can explain. I contend it is possible, and will not back off of that.

We disagree. I'm not going to argue this point ad-nauseum with you. If you wish to go on, then I guess you can argue with yourself, but I'm done.

How are you helping the original poster when you argue this point? Because SEVERAL posts ago, he SAID he checked the manifold and there were no leaks.
That means that the manifold, and all associated arguments from then on, ARE NOT RELEVANT to him, since he already eliminated the manifold as a possible problem!
He was not going on any wild goose chase since as soon as he sprayed it while running, he was satisfied that there was no leak, therefore you were not protecting him. He was not, I repeat, NOT going to follow any farther down the manifold road because he ALREADY ELIMINATED IT as a possible problem. So after he posted that, he was off looking at other possible issues, but you just kept right on coming after me. Why? Perhaps you are just very technically minded and thought it was an interesting discussion from that point of view, but it had nothing to do with helping francois and his A once he posted that he had moved on.

For my part, I had thought that you WERE teddy52, and were jacking with me just for the sake of jacking with me. Now I realize that teddy52 asked the question first, then it was all you after that. My bad. So I'm sorry for jumping back at you so soon in the exhange. But that doesn't change the fact that you won't accept that I have a different opinion concerning what damage can be done by a blow-by gasket, and have been on my case ever since. So, can we agree to disagree and finally end this?

I readily admit that right now, I am violating my own principle, in that I am even writing this back. To all on the board, I apoligize for even going this route. To francois, this has nothing to do with you, you did nothing wrong, and I'm sorry for jacking your post with this idiocy.
