Any assistance is welcome in identifying this old leaky manifold!
It's given good service and I would like to replace it with an identical model if possible...


Are there any reliable sources for new or refurbished components like this?

Thanks in anticipation
 
Wow! Can I get it fitted that quickly?!
Bad news about the price though - might have to revise the prize fund!

Thanks for the pointer mickyg

You know why the tray under it has failed :?: Cuz it`s ali and it`s touching the copper - it`s a sacrificial anode :lol: . Replace the tray with a plastic one - dose the system with a leak sealer - Screw down the floor -save yourself £100 Simples :mrgreen:
 
It looks as if it is leaking at the compression fittings on the microbore. They may respond to tightening with [I think] a 16mm spanner, or it may be disastrous! The inner ones are difficult to access, you may find a cutaway or skeleton ring spanner with do it. The green stuff on the solder 22mm fittings is just flux residue from careless workmanship.

This was a normal micobore manifold with a stop in the centre to separate the flow and return. I think it is a Yorkshire product, but it's about 25 years since I fitted one.
 
I thought the WM18 Micrafold was last week's Quiz of the week.
