Consumer Description

PLASTIC INTAKE MANIFOLD CRACKED FOR THE 2ND TIME. I WAS FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO GET COVERED UNDER THE RECALL THE FIRST TIME, BUT THIS TIME I'M ON MY OWN. THIS IS ON A '96 MUSTANG GT WITH 100K MILES. BOTH CRACKS WERE AROUND THE TEMPERATURE SENDING UNIT AT THE FRONT/PASSENGER SIDE OF THE MOTOR.*JB
