I have the same engine in my 03 Tradition. Had this exact work done in January before heading to Florida. I was complaining in November to my mechanic about no power climbing hills. We all thought we were having fuel filter/injection/injector pump type issues. With bad weather around, I decided to take it back to him for the pre Florida check up. They found the cracked manifold. Was about $400 for the manifold and about six hours of labor to replace it. Power is back, braking is back and it runs awesome once again!!
Thanks for the response. Curious, was it between 3 and 4 on the manifold?. Would you say it looked similar to this one?
Also, this kinda looks like a two piece because of the seam between 4 and 5. Thoughts????
Thanks in advance.
John.
