Over time, the ability of the intake manifold to distribute this mixture efficiently can be seriously impaired due to a buildup of various deposits inside it. In addition, fluids that circulate though the engine can enter the manifold and end up being burned inside the cylinders if the intake manifold gaskets break down.
