Today I was poking around under the hood and I was putting new clamps on some hoses. I drove the truck for a few minutes to let it warm up and came back. I popped the hood open with the car still on to make sure the clamps sealed well, when I noticed a lot of fumes coming out from the exhaust manifold, I couldn't quite see the crack but I could tell where it must be.
It was on the driver side, and the very back end of the manifold. steam/fumes were coming out and I would like to know what I should do about it?
Should I replace the manifold? I'm light on money right now and probably cant afford new stuff, so is there a easy way to patch this up until I can fix it properly?
Also I don't know if its OK to drive it right now or not.
