Guys,
Has anyone actually fitted one of these after-market manifolds?
I am in the UK and a company here is selling tons of them as a replacement for the whole range and age of 4 cylinder VP AQ125-AQ151.
Mine is a AQ131B, and I am in the last throws of a rebuild.
I have bought one of these manifolds because they are so much less than the Volvo Penta genuin part number.
What troubles me is that the separation plate that is renound for failing is not in this manifold. There is no plate just a 1.5 inch deep shelf at the round opening.
I am rebuilding the engine because the number 4 exhaust port eroded away with salt water. Will this manifold make the water erode all cylinders.
Has anyone been using one of these for a season and there is nothing for me to worry about?
