hay guy's need a lil help got a ABF fitted in my mk2 thats dead(was that way when i brought it) as i was taken the engine apart i noticed that the standard manifold has a crack in it......

what i need to know is do i go for a 4branch or just get another standard one??
i take it i need a mk3 4 branch if i go this root as the front pipe looks standard and unmoddified.........

They all crack.  It's a common fail on the ABF manifold.

Good luck finding an ABF suitable tubular manifold.

ask tsr, they were developing one. dunno if its for sale yet?

or stop drill the crack and weld it up

or make a 1.8 tubular manifold fit

[danny_p]

don't look at the crack there all cracked and rarely ever blow

[barnysGTI]

thought it would b a common fault............

i thought a mk3 4 branch sholud fit just because its got a standard mk3 manifold and front pipe.........

dont think it can be welded just because the crack goes to where you cant get to it...
