Exhaust manifold gasket replacement
The exhaust manifold is that part of the exhaust system which removes fumes from the cylinders. The joint between the manifold and the engine block is made tight by means of a gasket. If the gasket fails the engine is much louder than normally, e.g. you can hear blow-bys. In extreme cases, it will produce smoke or even fire.
