- Disconnect the crankcase ventilation oil separator tube and remove the intake manifold.
Installation
NOTICE: If the engine is repaired or replaced because of upper engine failure, typically including valve or piston damage, check the intake manifold for metal debris. If metal debris is found, install a new intake manifold. Failure to follow these instructions can result in engine damage.
1. Visually inspect the intake manifold gaskets for nicks, cuts and abrasions. If these conditions are not present, the gaskets may be re-used.
2. Position the intake manifold and connect the crankcase ventilation oil separator tube.
- Attach the 2 KS (Knock Sensor) wiring harness retainers from the intake manifold.
- Connect the TB (Throttle Body) electrical connector and attach the wiring harness retainer to the TB (Throttle Body).
3. Install the intake manifold and the 5 bolts.
- Tighten in the sequence shown to 20 Nm (177 lb-in).
- Install the vacuum tube into the quick connect coupling.
4. Connect the 2 vacuum hoses to the intake manifold.
- Connect the vacuum tube quick connect coupling. REFER to Quick Connect Coupling .
- Attach the vacuum hose retainer to the intake manifold.
5. Attach the 2 fuel tube retaining clips to the intake manifold.
6. Install the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) canister purge valve and EVAP (Evaporative Emission) tube assembly.
- Install the engine appearance cover mounting stud.
- Tighten to 5 Nm (44 lb-in).
- Connect the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) canister purge valve electrical connector.
- Connect the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) tube to the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) canister purge valve and the ACL (Air Cleaner) outlet pipe. REFER to Quick Connect Coupling .
7. Connect the FRP (Fuel Rail Pressure) sensor and MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure) sensor electrical connectors.
