I have a 1978 mercruiser 470 3.7 lt. 170hp with the "old style" exhaust manifold. after some tests i found that the manifold is leaking coolent into the exhaust ports internaly... i cant see the hole or crack, is there anyway to have this manifold fixed...ive looked everywhere and i cant seem to find a replacement....if anyone has any information for me i would greatly appreciate it..thanks

romy, start a new thread with your question, don't ask your question on someone elses thread.
