manifold

I had a look at doing the job today but I'm a bit windy about the HP fuel pump and pipework that has to come off. Can someone please my fears either on here or by phone. I need to do it tomorrow as I will not have the facilities from Friday and I worry that it I won't get it done in one day...

To minimise my GT’s time off the road I may have the chance of a 159 plastic inlet manifold which I will remove the swirl flaps and properly clean. My question is the compatibility of the 159 & GT units. Derek.

As above, do you have to drain the coolant when you remove the inlet manifold?? Thank you!

I am looking to replace the manifolds on my 3.2 gtv to get rid of the heat problem and make exhaust system less restrictive. I would like the wizards as they are highly respected. My questions are what is involved in doing the job, what are the issues and would it be a better option to leave it...

Hi Just acquired myself a spare intake manifold for my 2.4 which I have de-swirled and cleaned ready to fit the blanks. It’s in the dishwasher as we speak LOL! The question is this - having split the manifold in to two halves (which destroyed the rubber gasket) what is the best sealant to use...

Hi all very new to the page as have just brought myself a Brera 3.2 V6. Love the car but always felt it was holding back a little, I thought this was just cos it was over due a service so got it done straight away. During the service they found a hole in the intake manifold (gear box end I'm...

hi I am looking for alfetta gtv inlet manifold set of rubbers - to connect manifold to the carbs. does anyone where I can get them from? thanks

I've a 2009 147 Ducati that has the Magneti Marelli plastic inlet manifold with the metal swirl flaps. I'm looking into doing a swirl flap delete but I can't find anywhere that sells the blanking plugs for this manifold, only the older metal Pierburg manifold. Does anyone make a kit for this...

Hi, I know I have seen this somewhere on the forum but cannot seem to find it! I have just changed the plugs on a Brera 3.2 and cannot seem to find in the inlet manifold torque setting. Can someone advise please? Thanks Nick

Hi All, Just bought a GT 2.0 JTS with a failed head gasket and I'm in the process of removing the head. This is my first JTS motor and I need some advice on the exhaust manifold... Given the manifold plus downpipe plus pre-cat/cat is a single assembly, I'm obviously going to have to remove...

Follow the green wire on the 1st pic… The plastic intake manifold has melted close to the EGR valve flange. The question is why? An how to repair? The consequence is the burn of the wiring loom by the exhaust gases and the p2148 and p2151 error codes I had (see...

Hi, I have 159 1.9 jtdm. My mechanic said swirl flap of inlet manifold is broken and manifold must be changed. I have not seen any performance lose. Mechanic showed me a broken arm on the engine that controls flaps. He said that i have two options, one is changing the manifold (expensive)...

Hi I have a ***** 159 and it needed a new manifold gasket and while it was in I wanted the timing belt and water pump to be replaced and a service. Also it needed new rear springs, a steering rack & front pads. Do any members know roughly how long all these jobs should take (including drilling...

Has anyone actually removed it from a 1.6? if so how do i do it? i'd like to free a few ponies before the remap :rofl:

Found these in the back of the garage. I remember buying these separately then having to buy a kit to get some of the others I needed when I changed the head gasket on the 156. Cam cover seal £12.50 Inlet manifold gasket £7.50 (See attached pic for type) plus postage costs

Hi Guys, I've replaced my manifolds with a set of Wizard Decatted ones and car goes really well, but when I rev hard i can hear a tinny sound, I discoverd that on the Rear bank the heatshield is moving on one side as it only has one bolt point unlike the front ones which have 2, is there anyway...

Have to get my arse into gear & think about getting rid of those jolly old swirl flaps. I've got the plastic manifold. Will any one fit? Secondhand manifolds appear to be cheap on fleabay When I do get around to doing the job, I'll need to be able to get on with it as quick as poss, so was...

Hello everyone, Car began to rattle when cold, I found few screws broken on catalytic converter end, fixed it, but it still makes same sound. My question is can you check the top of the exhaust manifold by removing heat shield from it, and can you tighten the screws that way. Everything...

Ive started to strip my little 1.9 147 and have this manifold for sale which has no flaps, they havent been deleted its actually cast with no flaps. £65 posted via Hermes

This isn't looking good, cooling system was flushed out and new coolant added when the new rad was fitted. Looks like it could be porous.
