Intake manifold whistle
does anyone know what would make and intake manifold whistle. i recently swapped an 92-93 civic vx manifold to a 90-91 crx si manifold. everything seems to be secure. however and a certain pedal pressure it makes an annoying whistle. does anyone know what might make it do that?

Did you use new gaskets and make sure all the vacuum nipples where used of capped? It may be a vacuum leak.
(Edit: I said "manifolds" instead of "gaskets." Duh moment, sorry.)

sorry cant type apparantly
kai...... all of my vacume hoses seem to be fine and i can not locate any cracks or gaps in my manifold. is it possible the whistle is coming from my vacumes sucking to much or to little air? any suggestions.
