To Remove:
NOTE: The intake manifold, throttle body, fuel injection rail, and fuel injectors may be
removed as an assembly. If not servicing the individual components, remove the
manifold as a complete assembly.
NOTE: An intake manifold with warpage in excess of 0.118 in. (3 mm) over a 7.87 in.
(200 mm) area is warped and should be replaced.
After you get the intake off you will see the knock sensors in the valley between the
heads. Take the caps off and unplug the sensor.
To Install:
NOTE: 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.
