Just changed my 4.6L intake manifold Saturday...found out this morning about this problem, luckily only a few miles from home...crazy they build this part with such a massive defect built in. I'll try this repair method and get back on the road, thanks!

Thanks for sharing your fix for this. Someone’s brain waves flatlined when they designed this. Generally epoxies and plastics don’t mix do using some epoxy that’s meant for plastic might be better and scuffing with an abrasive and cleaning with acetone might help the epoxy adhere.

Fortunately the jb weld is just reinforcing the metal plug. Seems to be holding up perfectly

I have this same intake on a F150. I might try the same fix.

@petedymond even with romping on it? My caps would blow off if I were to get on the gas pretty hard and run the rpms up to redline.
