MG TD TF 1500 - E-Bay TD


This Td is on E-Bay,, My question is, what is that thing on the exhaust manifold?? Just above the manifold flange ...

My guess is that it's an aborted attempt to make a split manifold.
Jim Merz

Maybe it is a custom MG logo cover!

Oxygen sensor for the ECM? Oh sorry, wrong TF.

Could have been an attempt to do a manifold (ala VW) type heater.
LED DOWNEY

Wrong fuel pump also!

I know this is an e-bay car, but why does someone go to the trouble of taking the body down and doing a new paint job and then not spend another 1/2 day to take everything off the firewall and painting it. (and the engine, for that matter).

Place to put a turbocharger??

It's obviously just a spruced up, not restored car. I'd enjoy detailing it bit, too. But some folks think "out of sight, out of mind". Probably because they don't have the time, or don't enjoy the work (and the satisfaction that comes from it).

Give it to me for a day and that engine compartment would shine...including the firewall...They just painted it black and never cleaned it!
