INSPECTION

1. INSPECT INTAKE MANIFOLD
a) Using a precision straightedge and feeler gauge, measure the surface contacting the cylinder head for warpage.
Maximum warpage: 0.10 mm (0.004 inch)
If the warpage is greater than the maximum, replace the manifold.

2. INSPECT EXHAUST MANIFOLD
a) Using a precision straightedge and feeler gauge, measure the surface contacting the cylinder head for warpage.
Maximum warpage: 0.70 mm (0.028 inch)
If the warpage is greater than the maximum, replace the manifold.
