I have a 706 gasser with the 263 that I only use to feed hay in the winter. I've had trouble with the intake manifold gasket going out. It's always the center port that leaks. The out side ports have rings that hold the gasket in place. I've had the manifold planed and the head is straight and I keep it torgued properly but still about every 2 years {300hrs}she leaks. The dealer machinic says its a very common problem and if you work it hard with it leaking it will burn or stick a valve. As I understand there is 2 types of gaskets thick and thin. The 263 uses the thin one. a peice of metal with 2 peices of gasket materal glued to it. Is there a better made gasket out there than the caseNH one?
