carbon monoxide poisoning from raw exhaust entering the passenger compartment. Needs to get replaced

To add to what Nick pointed out, it will cause some real driveability issue by introducing oxygen into the exhaust and really confusing the 0/2 sensor.

Also, please don't post duplicate questions

Thanks for your reply. I did not think about the carbon monoxide. I will not drive it until I replace the manifold. Thanks again for your help..........Braxton

Thanks for your reply. I am sorry I posted it twice. This is the first time I have used this forum media. Your additional information 0/2 explains a lot more about my problems. The sensor is just below the manifold. I will not drive it again until I replace the manifold. Thanks again for your reply.........Braxton
