Important: The following steps are only necessary if the throttle body or intake manifold require replacement.
Important: DO NOT force the injector into position or damage to the o-ring seals could occur.
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
Tighten
Tighten the throttle body spacer bolts to 12 N·m (106 lb in).
Tighten
Tighten the upper throttle body retaining bolts to 12 N·m
(106 lb in). Tighten the lower throttle body retaining bolts
to 10 N·m (89 lb in)
Important: The intake manifold carrier gaskets are attached to the intake manifold through a snap-lock feature. When you install the intake manifold, the carrier gaskets will remain attached to the manifold. It is not necessary to replace the gaskets unless there is damage to the seals.
