Hello and welcome, unfortunately this is a common one on the 2.3 and may just be the reason why the car was sold, new ones from Ford are quite expensive and the general opinion is that its not the best idea to fit a second hand one unless you can find one very cheaply.. most second hand ones on ebay go for around the £100 mark..

Would the inlet manifold from a 2.3 Galaxy fit the Scorpio ?

Star sign is Scorpio !
Sierra XR4i's are great...especially when fitted with 4WD

the 2.0 intake will fit, (ive got one fitted to my 2.3) you have to play round with the piping though as the 2.0 intake doesnt have as many vacuume connections as the 2.3
