Intake Manifold: Installation
CAUTION:
When cleaning the intake manifold and cylinder head mating surfaces, do not use a metal scraper because the surfaces could be cut or ground. Instead, use a wooden or plastic scraper.
NOTE:
Care must be taken to protect the intake manifold powder coat from possible scrapes and abrasions.
- Clean gasket surfaces and remove covering from intake manifold openings.
- Carefully install the intake manifold gaskets and alignment pins (Fig 1 ).
- Set the intake manifold in position on the engine. Install intake manifold bolts and tighten initially to 1 N.m (10 in. lbs.). Tighten bolts starting at the center and working outward to 11 N.m (95 in. lbs.) (Fig 2 ).
- Connect CCV hoses to left and right cylinder head covers.
- Connect fuel line to fuel rail (Figure ). Pull backward on the quick connect fitting to ensure complete insertion.
- Connect the brake booster vacuum hose.
- Connect the throttle cable housing to the bracket and then attach the cable to the throttle linkage (Figure ).
- Clip coolant bottle inlet hose to throttle body bracket and attach the purge solenoid hose to the underside of the throttle body housing (Figure ).
- Reconnect the following electrical connectors:
- Left cylinder head fuel injectors
- Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor
- MAP sensor
- Idle Speed Control
- Throttle Position Sensor
- Right cylinder head fuel injectors
- Install air cleaner housing assembly, connect throttle body air inlet hose and connect the Intake Air Temperature Sensor (Refer to INSTALLATION ).
- Install the wiper motor cowl screen
- Install the wiper arms.
- Connect negative battery cable. Install battery cover. Close trunk lid.
- With the DRB III(R) Scan Tool, use the ASD Fuel System Test to pressurize fuel system to check for leaks.CAUTION: When using the ASD Fuel System Test, the Auto Shutdown (ASD) relay will remain energized for 7 minutes or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, or Stop All Test is selected.
