So i was driving and all of a sudden i smell antifreeze and then i see smoke from under my hood and see anti freeze in puddles behind me as i am driving. FML i pull over open my hood and the hose going into the intake manifold is broken and OF COURSE ford uses a plastic manifold so the whole manifold has to be changed. If anyone has an extra manifold for a 2002 mustang gt 4.6l motor it would be greatly appreciated just let me know how much and how much you think a job like this is going to cost. Thanks So Much

i have heard of this often ( but where the thermostat housing is) ...as ford uses a plastic manifold...and it cracks. i think ford then changed that area to all metal and to a metal housing. because im not too familiar, can you just change the hose? how come the whole manifold has to be changed? any pics so i can keep an eye out on mine. thanks.

Quick thought, you could always clean the area where the nipple broke off, make it as flush as possible, then epoxy a threaded brass nipple into the hole. Just sayin'
