Intake Manifold Replacement Upper
Removal Procedure
- Disconnect the negative battery cable. Refer to
Caution: Unless directed otherwise, the ignition and start switch must be in the OFF or LOCK position, and all electrical loads must be OFF before servicing
any electrical component. Disconnect the negative battery cable to prevent an electrical spark should a tool or equipment come in contact with an exposed electrical terminal. Failure to follow these precautions may result in personal injury and/or damage to
the vehicle or its components.
in General Information.

Important: Mark the location of all the studs for proper reassembly.
- Remove the upper intake manifold bolts and studs.
- Remove the upper intake manifold.
- Clean old pieces of gasket form the gasket surfaces.
- Inspect the manifold for cracks, broken flanges, and gasket surface
damage.
Installation Procedure
- Install the upper intake manifold gasket.
- Install the upper intake manifold. Use care not to pinch the injector
lines between the upper and lower intake manifolds.
- Install the upper intake manifold bolts. Note the marks made at
disassembly for proper stud location. Install the two corner studs first in
order to help align the two halves.
Tighten
Tighten the bolts to 10 N·m (83 lb in).
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners
must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring
replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant
are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or
corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified.
These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage
the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when
installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

Refer to Accelerator Controls (Accelerator Control Cable)
in Engine Controls.
- Install the wiring harness connectors and brackets.
- Install the air cleaner box and intake duct. Refer to Air Cleaner (Air Intake Duct)
in Engine Controls.
- Connect the negative battery cable.
- Fill the cooling system if necessary. Refer to Draining and Filling
the Cooling System in Cooling and Radiator.
Intake Manifold Replacement Lower
Removal Procedure

the lower intake manifold. Refer to Fuel Hose and Pipes (Engine Fuel Pipes)
in Engine Controls.
- Disconnect the wiring harness and the brackets. Refer to Wiring
Harness Replacement in Engine Electrical.
- Disconnect the throttle cable, the cruise control cable (if equipped)
and the bracket from the manifold. Refer to Accelerator Controls (Accelerator Control Cable)
in Engine Controls.
- Remove the transmission oil level indicator tube. Refer to Oil
Level Indicator Tube Replacement in Automatic Transaxle.
- Remove the EGR tube, the clamp, and the bolt. Refer to EGR Valve Replacement
in Engine Controls.
- Remove the PCV valve and the vacuum hoses.
- Remove the air conditioning compressor, the bracket, and the accessory
drive bracket. Refer to Air Conditioning Compressor Replacement in HVAC.
- Remove the generator bracket bolt next to the thermostat housing
(if needed).
- Remove the lower
intake manifold bolts.
- Remove the lower intake manifold.
- Clean the old pieces of gasket from the gasket surfaces.
- Clean the excessive carbon buildup in the exhaust passages.
- Clean the scale and the deposits from the coolant passages.
- Clean the EGR passage of excessive carbon deposits.
- Inspect the manifold for cracks, broken flanges, and gasket surface
damage.
Installation Procedure
- Install the gaskets to the cylinder head with the port blocking plates
facing the rear of the engine and the "this side up" stamping
facing up.
- Install RTV to the front and the rear sealing surfaces on the block.
2.1. | Apply a 5 mm (0.197 in) bead of RTV GM P/N 1052366,
or equivalent, to the front and the rear of the block. |
2.2. | Extend the bead 13 mm (0.5 in) up each cylinder
head in order to seal and retain the gaskets. |
- Install the lower
intake manifold to the engine.
- Apply sealer, GM P/N 1052080, or equivalent, to the lower intake
manifold bolts.
- Install the lower intake manifold bolts. Tighten the bolts in sequence.
Tighten
• | Tighten the first sequence to 3 N·m (26 lb in). |
• | Tighten the second sequence to 12 N·m (106 lb in). |
• | Tighten the final sequence to 15 N·m (11 lb ft). |
