Removal Procedure
- Drain coolant. Refer to Cooling and Radiator.
- Remove the air inlet duct.
- Remove the accelerator and cruise control cables at the throttle
body.
- Remove the accelerator control cable bracket.
- Remove the vacuum lines, noting position of hoses.
- Remove the electrical connectors at the IAC valve, MAF, MAP, and
TP sensors.
- Remove the throttle body from the upper intake manifold. Refer
to
Throttle Body Assembly Replacement
- Remove the EGR valve.
- Remove the brake booster vacuum line.
- Remove the ignition coil wires numbers 2, 4, and 6 from the front
three spark plugs.
- Remove the ignition coil wires from the wire retainers on top
of the upper intake manifold and set wires aside.
- Remove the ignition coil assembly front bolt.
- Loosen ignition coil assembly rear nuts.
- Remove the MAP sensor and bracket.
- Remove the alternator braces.
- Remove the upper intake manifold bolts and studs.
- Remove the upper intake manifold and gaskets.
Installation Procedure
Notice: Do not use solvent of any type when cleaning the gasket surfaces on
the intake manifold and the throttle body assembly, as damage to the gasket
surfaces and throttle body assembly may result.
Use care in cleaning the gasket surfaces on the intake manifold and
the throttle body assembly, as sharp tools may damage the gasket surfaces.
- Clean the gasket sealing surfaces.
- Install the new upper intake manifold gaskets.
- Install the upper intake manifold.
- Install the upper intake manifold bolts and studs.
Tighten
Tighten the upper intake manifold bolts and studs to 25 N·m
(18 lb ft)
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.
