Cracked Exhaust Manifold!!! help!
Ok I got a crack on my stock 98 civic exhaust manifold.
thsi is my daily driver so "get a greddy" or somethign liek that is out of the quesiton.
I'm probably sellign the car soon, so is there a "liquid weld" or somethign like that I can put over the crack that will fix it for a few months? Or maybe a year?
help in advance!

I doubt anything besides an actual weld would hold up to that heat.
I'd say if you can't weld it go look for a used one or look in a junk yard.

If i'm not mistaken thats covered as a factory defect. One of my friends got his 97 DX header replaced free from Honda. I would suggest taking it back.

Re: (Ek9Max)
You could try some JB Weld, they sell it at pepboys,autozone,auto barn.....
Only a few bucks and MIGHT hold up for a while. For under $5 its worth a try
