Disassembly and Assembly
Intake Manifold AssemblyDisassembly
1. Separate the upper and lower intake manifolds.
^ Remove the bolts.
^ Discard the intake manifold gasket.
2. Using clean metal surface cleaner, clean and inspect the upper and lower manifold internal passages and mating surfaces.
3. Allow the upper and lower intake manifolds to dry completely.
Assembly
1. Position a new lower intake manifold gasket and the upper intake manifold on the lower intake manifold and loosely install the bolts.
2. Tighten the bolts in two stages using the sequence shown.
^ Stage 1: Tighten to 2 Nm (18 inch lbs.).
