Manifold query

[Ohhhh]

As the van didn't sell on Ebay I've taken that to mean it wasn't meant to be so I've started doing the work for the MOT with a view to using it myself.

I've just taken the manifold off (the studs need replacing)and along with the Manifold bolts a stream of water came out as well.

Do the manifold bolts go into the water jacket or is my head gasket leaking ?

This is normal, nothing to worry about.

Good decision too Ohhhh

 

[Ohhhh]

Funny how since not getting any bids or queries I have had 5 messages from people wanting to talk about the van in the last two hours

 

[Ohhhh]

So if the bolts go into the water jacket do they need any thread loc on them on replacement or do they seal up okay on their own ?

I had the same scary water on the floor problem when I did mine, I didn't use any threadlock on it when I put it back together and it was fine.
