1977 Fj40 original owner. Intake manifold leak. Took everything apart. Changing all gaskets and ran across the insulator between the two gaskets in the heat riser. It is cracked ....probably still sort of useable. No other modifications have been made to this vehicle ....still has the smog pump and same carburetor. So when I put this all back together do I install the heat riser block off plate that is available? Does it work? Will I notice anything? Will there be regret? It was quite a job to get this manifold out and I don’t want to go back in on this. The manifolds are good...nothing is cracked....the only thing that is f- -d up is this metal insulator. Anybody running around with this block off plate in there that can look me straight in the eye and say go for it Swenny?
