I believe your intake manifold is a composite/plastic one right?? Well you really arent gonna be able to fix plastic correctly.There was a recall a long time ago on these types of intakes from Ford.Make sure your recall was taken care of.The nearest Ford dealer can run your vin number to see if the intake problem was fixed by Ford already.You might get some JB weld to work for a while but i wouldnt trust it at all!! Get yourself a new one or better yet,this may be a good time to look into some performance parts if your into that type of stuff.I mean if your gonna have to take it apart to replace it,may as well buy the good stuff!!Check out this article--

first it is not normal for an intake manifold (in that era)to crack ever unless someone has cracked it, It is most likely made of aluminum, you can buy a used one or an aftermarket one I'm sure but it may be hard to try and repair the one you have. More info would help.

how about trying exhaust manifold/header crack compound? if the JB weld is breaking due to heat. i think JB weld has a high-temp product on the market.

If JB Weld didn't do it, nothing will. Grab one out of a junkyard.

i would try a junj yard and pick up a used on thats in good shape.......which should cost less then a new one...........
if you try patching the old one you risk the chance of getting debree in the engine....possibly damaging a valve
