Installation
1. NOTICE: Do not use metal scrapers, wire brushes, power abrasive discs or other abrasive means to clean the sealing surfaces. These tools cause scratches and gouges which make leak paths. Use a plastic scraping tool to remove all traces of old sealant.
Clean the mating surfaces of the cylinder head and the intake manifold with metal surface prep and silicone gasket remover. Follow the directions on the packaging.
2. 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.
Install the intake manifold in the following sequence.
1. Position the new intake manifold gaskets.
2. Position the intake manifold.
3. Loosely install the 9 intake manifold bolts.
3. Using a new O-ring seal, install the thermostat.
4. NOTE: The thermostat housing bolts are tightened in sequence with the intake manifold bolts.
Loosely install the thermostat housing and the 2 bolts.
5. Tighten the 11 bolts in 2 stages in the sequence shown.
- Stage 1: Tighten to 2 Nm (18 lb-in).
- Stage 2: Tighten to 25 Nm (18 lb-ft).
6. NOTE: Verify that the ignition coil spring is correctly located inside the ignition coil boot and that there is no damage to the tip of the boot.
Install the 8 ignition coils and the 8 bolts.
