Review on Dorman 917 142 Exhaust Manifold Cylinder by Jonathan Bennett

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Didn't work for me for spares

I tried this to save effort by avoiding pulling out the entire distributor and pulling out the broken bolt. However, my header was slightly bent, which was probably the cause of the broken bolt issue. The yoke didn't even make a half as good seal and just bent the screws and yoke as I tightened it further. Probably works if everything else is aligned, but useless as a patch if something is wrong. I ended up replacing the distributor and using an ABN bolt extractor kit here at Amazon, which worked great in a tight space. I had to get it right the first time, and it didn't even take that long.

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Almost OK
