INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Surface Distortion
Check the surface distortion of both the intake manifold (upper
and lower) mating surfaces with straightedge and feeler gauge.
If it exceeds the limit, replace intake manifolds (lower and/or
upper).

After installation perform procedure in EM-182, "INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION" .
Water Hose
Insert hose by 27 to 32 mm (1.06 to 1.26 in) from connector end.
Vac u u m H ose
Refer to EC-833, "Vacuum Hose Drawing" .
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Perform the “Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning” when harness connector of electric throttle control
actuator is disconnected. Refer to EC-806, "
Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning" .
Perform the “Idle Air Volume Learning” and “Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning” when electric throt-
tle control actuator is replaced. Refer to EC-807, "

Exhaust Manifold Gasket
Install exhaust manifold gasket with its directional protrusion set
upward.
Exhaust Manifold
Install exhaust manifold and tighten mounting nuts in numerical
order as shown in the figure.
NOTE:
Tighten mounting nuts No. 1 to 4 in two steps. The numerical
order No. 9 to 12 shown second steps.
Air Fuel Ratio Sensor
CAUTION:
Before installing a new air fuel ratio sensor 1, clean exhaust system threads using oxygen sensor
thread cleaner (commercial service tool: J-43897-18 or J-43897-12), and apply anti-seize lubricant
(commercial service tool).
Do not over torque air fuel ratio sensor. Doing so may cause damage to the air fuel ratio sensor 1,
resulting in “MIL” coming on.
