NOTE
If the lower intake manifold is cracked or
damaged, it must be replaced. No welding or
patching of the intake manifold should be
performed.
2 Place a straight edge (1) across the upper intake manifold sealing surface (2).
3 Using a feeler gauge (3), measure the clearance between the manifold and the straight edge.
4 If the clearance between the upper intake manifold sealing surface and the straight edge exceeds the
specified maximum warpage, replace the manifold.
Upper manifold maximum
warpage ............................................................ 0.05 mm

6 Using a feeler gauge (3), measure the clearance between the manifold and the straight edge.
7 If the clearance between the lower intake manifold sealing surface and the straight edge exceeds the
specified maximum warpage, replace the manifold.

Reassemble
Reassembly of the upper to lower intake manifold is the reverse of the disassembly procedure noting the following:
1 Ensure that both the manifolds have been cleaned and inspected.
2 Ensure that the warpage of the mating surfaces is within tolerances.
3 New upper to lower intake manifold gaskets must be used.
4 Do not tighten the intake manifold to lower intake manifold attaching bolt at this stage. The intake manifold attaching bolts must be tightened at the specified sequence during the reinstallation procedure.
Reinstall
Reinstallation of the upper intake manifold and the upper and lower intake manifold assembly is the reverse of the
removal procedure, noting the following:
1 Install the EVAP hose to the clip attached to the lower intake manifold.
2 Only new gaskets are to be fitted between the upper and lower intake manifolds.
3 If undamaged, the lower intake manifold to cylinder head gasket may be re-used, however its replacement is strongly recommended.

CAUTION
Setting the camshaft timing is required
whenever the camshaft drive system has
been disturbed and the relationship between
any chain and sprocket has been lost. If
required, follow the left-hand secondary
timing chain reinstallation procedure to reset
the camshaft timing.

Right-hand Secondary Timing Chain
CAUTION
After removing the upper intake manifold, and
spark plugs, plug any openings to prevent dirt
and other contaminants from entering.
1 Remove the engine front cover assembly, refer to 3.15 Front Cover Assembly.
2 Remove the spark plugs to aid crankshaft/engine rotation, refer to 6C1-3 Engine Management – V6 – Service Operations.
3 Install Tool No. EN46111 (1) onto the crankshaft (2).
Figure 6A1 – 101
4 Using Tool No. EN46111 (1), rotate the crankshaft in a clockwise direction until the crankshaft sprocket
timing mark (2) is aligned with the indexing mark (3)
on the oil pump housing.
