Removal Procedure
- Turn ignition OFF.
- Loosen battery hold down cover screws and remove battery cover.
- Disconnect intake manifold runner control solenoid (IMRC) harness connector.
- Remove vacuum hose from bank 2 intake manifold
runner diaphragm.
- Remove clamp from power brake booster vacuum hose at intake manifold and
remove vacuum hose.
- Remove IMRC solenoid attachment screw.
- Remove both vacuum lines from IMRC solenoid and remove IMRC solenoid.
Installation Procedure
Important: The vacuum line that goes to both diaphragms is attached to the solenoid vacuum
port that faces down, which is perpendicular to the electrical connector.
- Reconnect both vacuum lines to IMRC solenoid noting that the vacuum line to
the diaphragms attaches to the vacuum port perpendicular to the electrical connector.
Notice: Refer to Fastener Notice in the Preface section.
- Install IMRC solenoid and IMRC solenoid attachment screw to the intake manifold.
Tighten
Tighten the intake manifold runner control solenoid to intake manifold screw
to 8 N·m (71 lb in).
- Connect power brake booster vacuum hose with clamp to intake manifold.
- Connect vacuum hose to bank 2 intake manifold runner diaphragm.
- Connect IMRC solenoid harness connector. Push connector in until the lock
position is felt, than pull back to confirm engagement.
- Install battery cover and tighter hold down screws.
