REMOVAL PROCEDURE




1. Remove the bolt from the air inlet duct resonator to the air intake box.
2. Loosen the hose clamp on the resonator pipe and swing the pipe out of the way.
3. Disconnect the electrical connector from the Throttle Position (TP) sensor.
4. Remove the 2 screws and the IP sensor from the throttle body.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
