Having seen the pictures of the car - I think it's the least of your worries! Never known a manifold to rust through.

No harm in being thorough, though :)

Thanks for posting the link, jock - i think this might be the same technique which packedup recommended a while back?

B&Q sell large plastic tubs with handles. They would certainly take an exhaust manifold. They're usually in the building section. :D

this can also be done by placing aluminium foil in the tank (or indeed any aluminium) along with the soda rather than using electricity
