I have a wrapped exhaust manifold On my F-150 It sounds pretty neat but It runs just fine. They want to $500.00 bucks to replace it. I think I'll leave It the way It Is.

Thanks for advice , but in cast iron, cracked. Replace is all do. My ancient junk 87-S10, which never drive much, save emergency vechile. Should be junked, would not trust all, or shutoff if went somewhere, N bad rust throughout an frame, not to safe. Anyway that has aluminum manifold an was successfully welded years ago


Not true, great for Exhaust manifolds, first thing on the list....

This-- like ADC said and I said. The stuff I used from Auto Zone reminded me of valve lapping compound. Patched up a small hole in my manifold for a couple years before I replaced it.

If can see the crack I could try it if can be patched. I heard with this problem that always cracks where converter is integrated or molded on to manifold an 3 shops I ask in past. Say it could not be welded or repaired , I don't know. ? Take off heat shield an got unhook wire go to o2 sensor , however that unhooks an could take a look at it , the converter is no good. The check engine lite on over a year now, an had code scan more once

Yep, you'll have to take heat shield off.

As for the check engine light, yes again because it's sucking air in thru the crack giving false readings.

For once, take some of the above advise and either.....

Patch it with the J B weld recommended

Take to good welder

Or forget about it!

Well I think about it over weekend an decide next week, what do , could ask shop if JB welded compound maybe work, I think not an blow again or worse an blow out big crack , I don't know, the conveter went bad like 15 mi the ago an check engine lite in since then, the crack happen in January, so until replaced. No check engine lite to see if anything else wrong, it sound normal or nearly normal after warm up good, but for 15-20 seconds, the rough idle on cold start. An noise. , Back pressure not right ? Scary, I shudder an think it go wreck engine sometime. It go away after 20 seconds an on road after few miles. Normal or almost. Maybe should consider blow about $1k on cast iron exhaust manifold with converter integrated on it, expensive an go hurt, 2nd replace manifold. U can get for around $400 in first auto parts, advance auto want $600 for cheaper one, I doubt the shop is go want to put one on i get, I believe they quoted. $700 , Chevy garage or dealer. Is way over $1500, they only get gm replacement parts, have save up bunch $$ just lately in last 2 months, but it gonna be expensive, anyone know on hi mileage vechiles if oil pump fails , when do they usally not work right ? Upon engine start ? I almost positive the rough idle at cold start for 20 seconds , is back pressure from crack manifold, I had motor in another pickup years ago that died,, oil pump fail, is oil pump failure a common reason hi mileage vechiles die ? When do they fail ? Cold start act up ? I have 218, k on engine. Uses maybe a quart an half oil in 3k miles. Between oil change

Drive it around at night here in Iowa, maybe a deer will wander into your path and solve its problems. There are mechanics around where you supply the parts and pay them to put it on.

There's shops in Virginia where you bring your own parts and pay the mechanic to put it on.


I do it all the time with our mechanic. My old f150 has a little diesel in it that doesnt belong in there and most shops won't touch it. The small, one man mechanic shops will usually work with you on parts.

Drive it off a dock into the river,or burn it back in the bush then report it stolen and collect the insurance.

I don't have full coverage on it. Not a 2010 with high miles. If ur financed. I believe law say u have to or get financed, dealer wont sell. At least when bought it new. I not into ins fraud an big trouble. They only pay u what worth. I believe u also got have gap ins. When get something cost a lot or new from vechile. It pay difference. Between ins pay off. An what u owe on finacing, there all sorts junk I rember try sell u when bought new, extended warranty. Auto armor or ins even on interior an paint? Undercoating, other rip off crap they add onto ur financing , when I bought new in 2010, I argue lot on price an only thing got was gap ins. Expensive enough. Then they screw u on trade in price. There were $1000 off in discounts am noone wants manual. Difference in price. I believe the sale price after incentives was $19,000, now check out new Colorado prices. That 4 by 4, depreciation is terrible an quick when have for short while. Like $1000s, u got pay freight ft factory even if already have lot which they did. I could look up. Like $6$-700 more, unless u got money buy new vechile. U get screw bad on finacing, the first new vechile I actually pay off, without trade in, like keep it, I am picky with it an what do it, an who give ride to, I heard someone give some girl ride an had dope. I thought was dirty. As he had nothing do it an cops impound it an confiscate an sold sheriff auction I hear. I guess they like it that own it in such a case az if financed. It go back finance company, here the law sold it at profit to county. An this guy didn't have thing do it an got charged, but anyhow this don't matter, as wondering bfore get manifold replaced. Az oil pump symptoms or failures, ? These shops where they install ur parts, almost got be like guy that works cars. U csn trust. I know none , just shops, midas muffler wanted. Around $1200, shop I thinking of, maybe $900

I know not everyone is a mechanic, or even close to one.

That said, you can at least try to remove the heat shield and smear some goop on it surely? It's not like your going to ruin the manifold so you have nothing to lose.

Fix one problem then go on and worry about the "what ifs". You can have the shield off shortly if you'd just try.

Coonman is going to get 10 or 11 more opinions from dealers that say nothing can be done but a replacement. I was going to copy and paste an interesting sentence to answer of his but couldn't find any periods.

I would stop throwing your money on a worthless vehicle, what's next to go wrong?


There's nothing wrong with the truck he has, so the manifold is cracked, big deal, it doesn't effect the way it gets down the road and isn't going to hurt anything else. He doesn't think the JB Weld will work because the same shop that he doesn't trust with their diagnosis told him so. crazy An oil pump either works or it doesn't.

Just drive the thing and IF it ACTUALLY breaks down then have it fixed.

You're going to die young if you don't get some help with your anxiety dave. Your constant worry and feeling that everyone is out to get you is not normal and is very unhealthy. I consider you a buddy and only say this because I care about it.

You recall when my wife took this picture of you? I treated you pretty good that day I'd say. I don't just go around doing that for just everyone.
