Checked all newly installed gaskets and vacuum lines with starting fluid and nothin; all seem good. I'm idling under 1000 I would say around 800 maybe. I read that it should be around 600-650 so I guess I'm not crazy high, still high though.

Also, my ABS light decided to turn off too lol; dunno.

Not bad, bit high.

I can see lifting the head and slipping a new gasket in. That is if the old one comes out nice and clean and in one piece. Personally I'd leave well enough alone unless things get worse. Or maybe it is worse now? Drive it and see.
