Booo, got a warped intake manifold!
Hey guys, basically i just got my car back after what turned out to be a toasted heater core (thanks to all that helped) and Ford noticed that my intake manifold is warped. Its not a imidiate fix, but there is a leak and the guy said that i could drive the car as is for a while but i gotta keep an eye on it. He claimed that to be the reason for my thermostat leak, and then its seaping out (barely) on the passenger side.
Basically to fix it would be like 700 total. But i just paid 500 plus for a new heater core, and well im broke for a bit. So im just wondering if this is a good time to upgrade the intake and what are some good options. Thanks also if anyone knows where to find cheap used intakes ill be in the market for one. As far as i know all i need is the manifold and a gasket or two right? Thanks
