Reply To: Aaaarrrggghhh. Not my manifolds!
They are working for now. I am on the hunt for a set of originals but I do have a plan. Keep you all posted if it comes to anything (not what I mentioned to you Marcel 😀 ).
The manifolds are just a shaped tube with a standard manifold connections on each end and vacuum conns in the tube. There will be a way round this that does not involve paying £300 to a person for a used set. They should be £35 for one £70 for the pair. I take it as a challenge to find a way round this issue. Off out to take some measurements and order the parts I need. I am ok at fixing and fabricating repairs of many things as I was an electrical engineer who salvaged and repaired when younger – there is nearly always another way!
