intake mani broken? ka24e

[wild_maxx]

i pulled my motor last weekend and took off the coolant lines from the radiator and was looking around inside the hole into the mani from the radiator and saw this little crack (i think its a crack) and was wondering if i should replace the whole thing or will it be ok?

I'll be able to answer your question later tonight unless someone else answers it before I do. lol. If you just want to replace the intake manifold, I've got a spare one.

Which hole you lookin down through btw?

its on the pass. side of the motor that the radiator hose runs into. about 1" diameter. circled in red

i think it might just be a part in the casting of the mani and not actually a crack i will have to take it off later on and see. how u want for your spare mani and it the whole thing?

That thing is connected to the intake manifold? Cool, now I know. I replace my coolant lines a few weeks back and that thing you circled was all rusted and nasty. Took a while to clean up, even then, still rusty.

Anyway, if it's not leaking, it's ok .

I'll have a look tonight as I've got my parts stashed in my buddies garage and got a oil sender unit being sold to a local. How much for the entire manifold? How's 20 + actual shipping sound? Just a heads up though, you'll need a new gasket for the collector to runners as I had to split the two when pulling the manifold off.

yeah i knew that but where do i order them from. i was looking around the sponsors and only found a complete gasket set for the entire motor. i dont need that. i just need one for the mani to the block and the top half of the many.

I didn't see the crack-like thing you were describing when I checked my mani. I did find some rust around the seam where the pipe meets the manifold though. But from what it seems, it looks like it's pretty normal stuff.
