Need Intake manifold info on 2000

[drummer97223]

Hello, I just bought a 2000 mgm. How do I know if it has a plastic intake manifold or if it has been replaced? On the Ford site it said I had no recalls. Thanks.

The recall was for fleet vehicles only. The private owners were settled by a class action law suit, not a recall. You may still qualify.

As HEMIDAZE said, there's no recall for your car but you may be covered by the lawsuit settlement. There's excellent info at the link below about the intake problem, how to fix it, and links to the settlement pages...

Take a look at the pics of old, all-plastic manifold and the new aluminum crossover design and you'll be able to determine whether your car still has the all-plastic version.
