Can a 99 jeep wrangler exhaust manifold crack be repaired?
Eugene4059
It is not worth the effort since it will probably just crack again; cast iron does not weld well. Use this as a good excuse to put on a header. I got a nice stainless steel header for my 1991 4.0L for $185 including shipping. The exhaust manifolds are also known to crack. If you do not want a header, another option would be to watch for someone that did put on a header but is trying to get rid of the stock exhaust manifold they took off.

Not any more than any other vehicle, but the weak point is where the exhaust meets the manifold. a new clamp and gasket will improve things a lot. Sometimes a crack will form in the manifold itself, this can be welded in most cases, but is hard to detect without a smoke test.

What could cause a knocking sound on a 1995 Nissan Pathfiner when the engine hits 3000 RPMs?
If the engine knocks when it is cold, it might be a crack in the exhaust manifold, or possibly a crack in on of the exhaust manifold bolts leading to the block. The crack is small, and once warm will swell shut, thereby stopping the noise. Without repair, it might lead to valve exhaust valve damage.

Yes you CAN start your car w/o the exhaust manifold mounted.....However, if you do, you are VERY likely to crack a valve. Your exhaust system protects the valves from cool air contacting a hot valve.
If you continue to drive a 1994 Chevrolet 1500 pickup with a crack in the drivers side exhaust manifold will it damage the vehicle?
I assume you are asking if this will harm the engine. The answer is no, it will do no harm to the engine. It will however, possibly allow exhaust gases to enter the passenger compartment, and as you know, that can be deadly. If it were my truck, I would have it repaired or replaced, and not take that chance.
