INSTALLATION - UPPER INTAKE MANIFOLD
1. If the following components were removed from manifold, install and tighten to specifications:
CAUTION: The special screws used for the composite manifold attached components must be installed slowly using hand tools only. This requirement is to prevent the melting of material that causes stripped threads. If threads become stripped, an oversize repair screw is available. For more information and procedure (Refer to 9 - ENGINE/MANIFOLDS/INTAKE MANIFOLD - STANDARD PROCEDURE - MANIFOLD STRIPPED THREAD REPAIR).
- MAP sensor - 1.7 N·m (15 in. lbs.)
2. Remove covering on lower intake manifold and clean surfaces.
3. Inspect manifold gasket condition. Gaskets can be re-used, if not damaged. Position new gasket in seal channel and press lightly in-place. Repeat procedure for each gasket position.
4. Position upper manifold on lower manifold.
5. Apply Mopar® Lock & Seal Adhesive (Medium Strength Threadlocker) to each upper intake manifold bolt. Install and tighten bolts to 12 N·m (105 in. lbs.) following torque sequence in .
6. Connect the MAP sensor electrical connector.
7. Connect the brake booster and cruise control vacuum hose to intake manifold.
CAUTION: The special screws used for attaching the EGR tube to the manifold must be installed slowly using hand tools only. This requirement is to prevent the melting of material that causes stripped threads. If threads become stripped, an oversize repair screw is available. For more information and procedure (Refer to 9 - ENGINE/MANIFOLDS/INTAKE MANIFOLD - STANDARD PROCEDURE - MANIFOLD STRIPPED THREAD REPAIR).
8. Install the EGR tube.
9. Connect throttle and speed control connectors to throttle body
10. Connect the EVAP hose to the throttle body.
11. Connect the wiring connectors to the throttle position sensor (TPS) and idle air control (IAC) motor.
12. Install air cleaner and air inlet hose assembly .
13. Connect the inlet air temperature (IAT) sensor electrical connector.
14. Connect battery negative cable.
