exhaust manifold cracks 700 1986

posted by  someone claiming to be Jim Haffner on  Sun Nov 5 14:21 CST 2000 [RELATED]

I have a question about cracks in the exhaust manifold. I know none is the BEST. I have an '86 740 t exhaust manifold. It has two cracks. One at the top of each corner. They only come up about 1/2 way. The mating surface to where the turbo goes on is crack free. The cracks do go through to the upper bolt holes, more on one side than the other. I found this by pouring alcohol over the cracks till it bleed through. My question is: is this manifold a "not to use" and find another or will it be ok? Given its age I am wondering will the cracks get worse or will they just stay this way? Has anyone else encountered this problem? Finding another manifold here is not so easy. Any ideas/help is appreciated.

And to those who ansered my last message about the 940 cooling fan I thank you. Your info is very helpful. Thanks, Jim
