I wouldnt think its a intake manifold issue on a inline 6.

I didnt know you could rent that tool, i'll look into that tomorrow.

I havent run a compression test yet. The engine runs great even cold.

I meant to add this in the original post. Back in 1985 when the car had 70,000 miles the previous owner overheated it and warped the head. The head was pulled, machined, rebuilt and put back in.
