Hi Guys ... Newbie here in need of urgent help!

Postby Virgil4747 » Sat Apr 29, 2017 9:09 am

Morning peeps, In desperate need of help here, came to start my Transit motorhome after the winters break and got a couple of problems ..... Started it up and there was air escaping from somewhere "exhausty" ... searched and found the centre section of exhaust had rotted through (not entirely surprised as I effected a "fix" there a couple of years ago), fixed the hole and started up again, still air escaping, searched further and it appeared to be coming from behind the exhaust manifold, facing the block, took everything off and extracted turbo/manifold to find a couple of cracks in it .... My lad tried to weld it with firstly cast rods and then, secondly, dissimilar rods to no avail, the manifold just wouldn't take the weld no matter what he tried!

I'm now desperately looking for a manifold for said vehicle .... Item looks like this ...Image
