BIL&SIL just took off to Florida and had to have their manifold snugged up while on the road. I guess the bolts came loose and was making one heck of a noise, this was on a 99 Bounder Ford V10.
Was this unique, or something that seems to be recurring now that that engine has been around for awhile? I'm guessing they must have 40-50K on the rig now.
yes they do still have issues on the V10 but not as bad. its a heat thing
