just made a gasket from gasket cement for my intake manifold on a 2007 SV6, packet says 1 hr set 24 hours cure, does that mean i shouldnt drive my car for 24 hours??
how long should i leave it??
I think the bigger question here is why didnt you just fork out an extra $40 for a set of re-usable metal gaskets?

Did you put some on the short end bits too?
Mine started leaking in the corner.
I`d leave it for 24hrs. Be a shame to do it again.
