Help seal the intake side of your engine against vacuum leaks with the SKP Intake Manifold Gasket Set SKT98146, an application-engineered set for both the lower and upper intake manifold. It is listed for many models, among them the 1994-2003 Dodge Ram 1500, 1994-2002 Dodge Ram 2500 and 1993-1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The listed applications use the V8-5.2L or V8-5.9L engine, which varies by model and year. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
This is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. If a leaking Ram 1500 intake manifold gasket is behind a vacuum leak, this set replaces it.
Signs the intake manifold gaskets may need replacing include a hissing vacuum leak, a rough or unstable idle, a lean condition, or coolant seepage at the manifold on applications where the gasket seals coolant passages. Diagnose the cause before replacing parts. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct torque values and tightening sequence, and for whether the original fasteners may be reused.

What does an engine intake manifold gasket set do?
It seals the lower and upper intake manifold joints so metered air stays in its intended path and unmetered air stays out. On some applications it also seals coolant passages.
What are signs the intake manifold gaskets may need replacing?
Common signs include a hissing vacuum leak, a rough or unstable idle, a lean condition, or coolant seepage near the manifold. Diagnose the cause before replacing.
How many sets does my engine need?
The listed applications use one set per engine, covering the lower and upper intake manifold positions.
What should I know before installing it?
Clean the sealing surfaces thoroughly, then follow the vehicle service information for torque values, tightening sequence, and whether the original fasteners may be reused.
