nipples.....

[19dabeast85]

Haha, got your attention...but really, i bought a H23 IM off ebay and the engine was evidently crapped out because all of the coolant nipples on the manifold and throttle body are rusted badly. The worst one is the larger ~5/8" nipple on the IM which is rusted through on the end all the way to the "ripple" in the tube.

I also have a couple vacuum connectors that are bent pretty badly and might want to replace them too(i can spray carb cleaner through these though so prolly OK)

So...does anyone know if it's possible to replace the coolant/vacuum nipples on the IM? And a better question: where is a source for them?

thx

pull them out.

You'll have to use a lot of force. Twisting helps.

Here's what i'm dealing with.....might not be bad enough to worry about but what do you think?

And what do i replace them with, unless i pull the ones out of my F22 manifold?
