How can you diagnose an exhaust leak?
Believe i have a pass side exhaust manifold leak. I put my ear up as close as i could, but since GM decided to put my engine under the dashboard, i cant get real close. Is there any way to be sure its the manifold and not some other noise? Its not a rocker, and its way too loud to be injecters.
