My no.1 manifold stud had sheard so I got a new set of Mazda ones from Bell Hill and replaced all eight at a cost of £95 inc labour

Well, 120 GBP and my Bongo is back in action, practically a fairy tale ending. Now I'm getting suited-up for a trip to the Skye music festival. I hope to see some of Bongonese people up there.
Thanks again for the feedback.

The fault was one that a trader would probably have fixed if only to avoid the hassle! The silicone was a hopeless attempt at a repair but, looking kindly at them, they did try to fix it so perhaps they thought they had fulfilled their part of the deal. As others have said it is a common problem and as you now have it fixed may you enjoy your Skye weekend in your Bongo, you do realise it is the weekend of the Peebles Bongo Bash
