In Reply to: H- manifold crack posted by BB on February 03, 2004 at 16:50:10:
BB, I have gone two ways. I had an H manifold welded at a welding shop where the guy knew what he was doing. The rods were expensive but it turned out fine. On another H I decided to go with a new manifold and it has made an enormous difference..you have better flow and distribution with new vs pitted, pocked old and rusted, I would replace the welded one but it is a distilate manifold and they are to my knowledge not available and I do want to run the tractor on distilate for the fun of it. There are some good sealers for manifolds, Carquest has a muffler cement that we use at the shop that will harden like weld if you let it sit for a day or so but it is not permanent like weld , it may last a few years though. If I ever buy another H, I will not hesitate to spend the money on a new manifold, that makes the tractor as far as I am concerned. Good luck with the options...Mike in Exeter Ontario
