EXHAUST MANIFOLD
DESCRIPTION
Engine exhaust manifolds (Fig. 72) are made of
high molybdenum ductile cast iron. A special ribbed
design helps control permanent dimensional changes
during heat cycles.
OPERATION
The exhaust manifolds collect the engine exhaust
exiting the combustion chambers, then channels the
exhaust gases to the exhaust pipes attached to the
manifolds.

INSTALLATION
(1) Connect the exhaust pipe(s) to the exhaust
manifold. Tighten the nuts to 34 N´m (25 ft. lbs.)
torque.
(2) Align and connect the exhaust pipe to the cat-
alytic converter flange (Fig. 4). Install exhaust clamp
and tighten clamp nuts to 47 N´m (35 ft. lbs.) torque.
(3) Connect oxygen sensor connector(s).
(4) Lower the vehicle.
(5) Start the engine and inspect for exhaust leaks
and exhaust system contact with the body panels.
Adjust the alignment, if needed.
EXHAUST PIPE
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect the battery negative cables.
(2) Raise and support the vehicle on a hoist.
(3) Saturate the bolts and nuts with heat valve
lubricant. Allow 5 minutes for penetration.
(4) Remove the exhaust pipe-to-extension pipe
clamp. Separate the exhaust pipe and extension pipe.
(5) Remove the exhaust pipe-to-turbocharger elbow
clamp (Fig. 5).
(6) Remove the exhaust pipe from the transmis-
sion support (Fig. 5).
INSPECTION
Discard rusted clamps, broken or worn supports
and attaching parts. Replace a component with orig-
inal equipment parts, or equivalent. This will assure
proper alignment with other parts in the system and
provide acceptable exhaust noise levels.
INSTALLATION
(1) Install the exhaust pipe into the transmission
support and onto the turbocharger flange.
(2) Install the exhaust pipe-to-turbocharger elbow
clamp and tighten to 31 N´m (23 ft. lbs.) torque.
(3) Install the extension pipe and clamp to the
exhaust pipe using a new clamp and tighten the
clamp nuts to 48 N´m (35 ft. lbs.) torque.
(4) Lower the vehicle.
(5) Connect the battery negative cables.
(6) Start the engine and inspect for exhaust leaks
and exhaust system contact with the body panels. A
minimum of 25.4 mm (1.0 in.) is required. Adjust the
alignment, if needed.
HEAT SHIELDS
DESCRIPTION
There are two types of heat shields used. One is
stamped steel the other is molded foil sheets. The
shields attach to the vehicle around the exhaust sys-
tem to prevent heat from the exhaust system from
entering the passenger area and other areas where
the heat can cause damage to other components.
REMOVAL
(1) Raise and support the vehicle.
(2) Remove the nuts or bolts holding the exhaust
heat shield to the floor pan (Fig. 6) (Fig. 7) (Fig. 8),
crossmember or bracket.

will result.
NOTE: If internal debris cannot be removed from
the cooler, the charge air cooler MUST be replaced.(1) If the engine experiences a turbocharger failure
or any other situation where oil or debris get into the
charge air cooler, the charge air cooler must be
cleaned internally.
(2) Position the charge air cooler so the inlet and
outlet tubes are vertical.
(3) Flush the cooler internally with solvent in the
direction opposite of normal air flow.
(4)
Shake the cooler and lightly tap on the end
tanks with a rubber mallet to dislodge trapped debris.
(5) Continue flushing until all debris or oil are
removed.
(6) Rinse the cooler with hot soapy water to
remove any remaining solvent.
(7) Rinse thoroughly with clean water and blow
dry with compressed air.
INSPECTION
Visually inspect the charge air cooler for cracks,
holes, or damage. Inspect the tubes, fins, and welds
for tears, breaks, or other damage. Replace the
charge air cooler if damage is found.
Pressure test the charge air cooler, using Charge
Air Cooler Tester Kit #3824556. This kit is available
through CumminstService Products. Instructions
are provided with the kit.
INSTALLATION

equipped) (Refer to 7 - COOLING/TRANSMISSION/
TRANS COOLER - INSTALLATION).
(4)
Install the A/C condenser (if A/C equipped) (Refer
to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/PLUMB-
ING/A/C CONDENSER - INSTALLATION). Recharge
A/C system (Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDI-
TIONING/PLUMBING - STANDARD PROCEDURE).

THROTTLE BODY
DESCRIPTION
The throttle body is located on the intake manifold.
Fuel does not enter the intake manifold through the
throttle body. Fuel is sprayed into the manifold by
the fuel injectors.
OPERATION
Filtered air from the air cleaner enters the intake
manifold through the throttle body. The throttle body
contains an air control passage controlled by an Idle
Air Control (IAC) motor. The air control passage is
used to supply air for idle conditions. A throttle valve
(plate) is used to supply air for above idle conditions.
5.7L V-8 Engine:
The throttle body on the 5.7L engine is an electri-
cally controlled unit. A mechanical cable is not used
to connect the throttle body to the accelerator pedal.
The Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor (APPS) along
with inputs from other sensors sets the throttle blade
to pre-determined positions.
Except 5.7L V-8 Engine:
Certain sensors are attached to the throttle body.
The accelerator pedal cable, speed control cable and
transmission control cable (when equipped) are con-
nected to the throttle body linkage arm.
A (factory adjusted) set screw is used to mechani-
cally limit the position of the throttle body throttle
plate.Never attempt to adjust the engine idle
speed using this screw.All idle speed functions are
controlled by the PCM.
REMOVAL
3.7L V-6
A (factory adjusted) set screw is used to mechani-
cally limit the position of the throttle body throttle
plate.Never attempt to adjust the engine idle

(2) Disconnect throttle body electrical connectors
at IAC motor and TPS.(3) Remove all control cables from throttle body
(lever) arm. Refer to the Accelerator Pedal and Throt-
tle Cable section for removal/installation procedures.
(4) Disconnect necessary vacuum lines at throttle
body.
(5) Remove 3 throttle body mounting bolts (Fig.
41).
(6) Remove throttle body from intake manifold.
(7) Check condition of old throttle body-to-intake
manifold o-ring (Fig. 42).
4.7L V-8
(1) Remove air duct and air resonator box at throt-
tle body.

CAUTION: Do not use spray (carb) cleaners on any
part of the throttle body. Do not apply silicone lubri-
cants to any part of the throttle body.

CAUTION: Do not attempt to remove sensor from
its mounting bracket as electronic calibration will
be destroyed (sensor-to-bracket mounting screws
are permanently attached). Two accelerator lever
set screws (Fig. 3) are used to position lever. Do
not attempt to alter positions of these set screws as
electronic calibration will be destroyed.
(1) Disconnect both negative battery cables at both
batteries.
(2) Remove cable cover (Fig. 1). Cable cover is
attached with 2 Phillips screws, 2 plastic retention
clips and 2 push tabs (Fig. 1). Remove 2 Phillips
screws and carefully pry out 2 retention clips. After
clip removal, push rearward on front tab, and
upward on lower tab for cover removal.
(3) Using finger pressure only, disconnect end of
speed control servo cable from throttle lever pin by
pulling forward on connector while holding lever
rearward (Fig. 2).DO NOT try to pull connector
off perpendicular to lever pin. Connector will
be broken.
(4) Using two small screwdrivers, pry throttle
cable connector socket from throttle lever ball (Fig.
2).Be very careful not to bend throttle lever
arm.
(5) Disconnect transmission control cable at lever
arm (if equipped). Refer to 21, Transmission.
(6) Squeeze pinch tabs on speed control cable (Fig.
2) and pull cable rearward to remove from cable
mounting bracket.
(7) Squeeze pinch tabs on throttle cable (Fig. 2)
and pull cable rearward to remove from cable mount-
ing bracket.

refer to 21, Transmission for transmission control
cable removal procedures.
(9) Disconnect wiring harness clip (Fig. 3) at bot-
tom of bracket.

tially remove APPS assembly from engine. After
assembly is partially removed, disconnect electrical
connector from bottom of sensor by pushing on con-
nector tab (Fig. 4).
(11) Remove APPS assembly from engine.
Late Diesel Engines
The APPS is serviced (replaced) as one assembly
including the sensor, plastic housing and cable. The
APPS assembly is located under the left vehicle bat-
tery tray (Fig. 5). Access to APPS is gained from over
top of left / front tire.
(1) Disconnect negative battery cable at battery.
(2) Disconnect APPS cable at accelerator pedal.
Refer to Accelerator Pedal Removal / Installation.
(3) Remove wheel house liner at left / front wheel.
