EXHAUST MANIFOLD
DESCRIPTION
The exhaust manifold is made of Hi-Silicone Moly
nodular cast iron for strength and high tempera-
tures. The manifold attaches to the cylinder head.
OPERATION
The exhaust manifold collects the exhaust gasses
exiting the combustion chambers. Then it channels
the exhaust gasses to the exhaust pipe attached to
the manifold.
REMOVAL
(1) Raise vehicle and disconnect exhaust pipe from
the exhaust manifold.
(2) Disconnect upstream oxygen sensor connector
at the rear of exhaust manifold.
(3) Remove the bolts attaching the manifold to the
cylinder head.
(4) Remove exhaust manifold.
(5) Inspect the manifold. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE/
MANIFOLDS/EXHAUST MANIFOLD - INSPEC-
TION)
CLEANING
(1) Discard gasket (if equipped) and clean all sur-
faces of manifold and cylinder head.
INSPECTION
(1) Inspect manifold gasket surfaces for flatness
with straight edge. Surface must be flat within 0.15
mm per 300 mm (0.006 in. per foot) of manifold
length.
(2) Inspect manifolds for cracks or distortion.
Replace manifold as necessary.
INSTALLATION
(1) Install exhaust manifold with a new gasket.
Tighten attaching nuts in the sequence shown in
(Fig. 111) to 20 N´m (175 in. lbs.).

CAUTION: Excessive pressure or high RPM (beyond
the recommended speed), can damage the sealing
surfaces. The mild (white, 120 grit) bristle disc is
recommended. If necessary, the medium (yellow, 80
grit) bristle disc may be used on cast iron surfaces
with care.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - HYDROSTATIC
LOCKED ENGINE
When an engine is suspected to be hydrostatically
locked, regardless of what caused the problem, the
following steps should be used.
CAUTION: DO NOT use starter motor to rotate the
engine, severe damage may occur.
(1) Inspect air cleaner, induction system and
intake manifold to insure system is dry and clear of
foreign material.
(2) Remove negative battery cable.
(3) Place a shop towel around the spark plugs
when removing them from the engine. This will catch
any fluid that may possibly be in the cylinder under
pressure.
(4) With all spark plugs removed, rotate engine
crankshaft using a breaker bar and socket.
(5) Identify the fluid in the cylinder(s) (i.e., cool-
ant, fuel, oil or other).
(6) Make sure all fluid has been removed from the
cylinders. Inspect engine for damage (i.e., connecting
rods, pistons, valves, etc.)(7) Repair engine or components as necessary to
prevent this problem from re-occurring.
CAUTION: Squirt approximately one teaspoon of oil
into the cylinders, rotate engine to lubricate the cyl-
inder walls to prevent damage on restart.
(8) Install new spark plugs.
(9) Drain engine oil and remove oil filter.
(10) Install a new oil filter.
(11) Fill engine with specified amount of approved
oil.
(12) Connect negative battery cable.
(13) Start engine and check for any leaks.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - REPAIR OF
DAMAGED OR WORN THREADS
Damaged or worn threads (excluding spark plug
and camshaft bearing cap attaching threads) can be
repaired. Essentially, this repair consists of drilling
out worn or damaged threads, tapping the hole with
a special Heli-Coil Tap, (or equivalent) and installing
an insert into the tapped hole. This brings the hole
back to its original thread size.
CAUTION: Be sure that the tapped holes maintain
the original center line.
Heli-Coil tools and inserts are readily available
from automotive parts jobbers.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - ENGINE CORE AND
OIL GALLERY PLUGS
Using a blunt tool such as a drift and a hammer,
strike the bottom edge of the cup plug. With the cup
plug rotated, grasp firmly with pliers or other suit-
able tool and remove plug (Fig. 5).
CAUTION: Do not drive cup plug into the casting as
restricted cooling can result and cause serious
engine problems.
Thoroughly clean inside of cup plug hole in cylin-
der block or head. Be sure to remove old sealer.
Lightly coat inside of cup plug hole with Mopart
Stud and Bearing Mount. Make certain the new plug
is cleaned of all oil or grease. Using proper drive
plug, drive plug into hole so that the sharp edge of
the plug is at least 0.5 mm (0.020 in.) inside the
lead-in chamfer.
It is not necessary to wait for curing of the sealant.
The cooling system can be refilled and the vehicle
placed in service immediately.
