Howdy all.

I don't spend too much time in this forum (the 96 never gives me any problems), but I've heard about a factory recall of the plastic intake manifold that cracks around the thermostat. Mine has had a very small leak for some time, but its gotten down right awful in the last few weeks.

I've heard some mixed experiences with this, so I thought I might start a fresh thread for y'alls input. I don't have too many engine mods (MAF, Pulleys) and the car has relatively low miles (70K). Hopefully, by some miracle, Ford will cover this one for me. :shrug:
