2.3 Exhaust Manifold ?

[Guest Wanny]

I don't surpose anybody knows were there's a 2.3 galaxy breaking (1997) ? I have investigated an exhaust leak only to find that the manifold has cracks in it around were those pipes that feed the heater system come out of it.

 

Does anybody know can these by welded or how much a new one is likley to cost.

 

Cheers

Not sure if it's the same design as the 2.3 Scorpio Ultima, these are renown for cracked exhaust manifolds. Wifeys has had 2 manifolds, both cracked, last time I got the old one, heated it up to bright red then arc welded the crack up. So far this has survived, in fact longer than the new one!

where are you located?,my local scrappy has galaxys in,but im not sure what engine size.

[Guest Wanny]

Thanks Stevemb1, I m in grimsby which is probably nowhere nearer but if you can supply the name and number I'll give them a ring.

 

If anybody knows if there is an aftermarket part or where I can source a second hand one it would be much appreciated as Fraud have quoted
