Installation

1. 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.

Using new gaskets, install the upper intake manifold and tighten the 7 bolts in the sequence shown in 2 stages.
- Stage 1: Tighten to 10 Nm (89 lb-in).

- Stage 2: Tighten an additional 45 degrees.






2. Install the upper intake manifold support bracket bolt to the RH cylinder head.
- Tighten to 10 Nm (89 lb-in).


3. Attach the wiring harness pin-type retainer to the rear of the upper intake manifold.

4. Connect the brake booster vacuum hose to the upper intake manifold vacuum tube.

5. Connect the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) canister purge valve electrical connector.
- Attach the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) canister purge valve electrical connector wiring harness pin-type retainer.


6. Connect EVAP (Evaporative Emission) tube to the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) canister purge valve.
- Attach the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) hose retainer to the intake manifold.


7. Connect the TB (Throttle Body) electrical connector.
- Attach the TB (Throttle Body) electrical connector wiring harness pin-type retainer to the TB (Throttle Body).


8. Connect the PCV tube quick connect coupling to the intake manifold.

9. Install the ACL (Air Cleaner) outlet tube.
