INTAKE MANIFOLD
6. Loosen the bolts in the order as shown, and remove the intake
manifold.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Surface Distortion
• Using straightedge and feeler gauge, inspect the surface distortion of the intake manifold. Refer to EM-146, "Removal and Installa-
tion".
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal. Fo llow the procedure below for specific tightening sequences
and procedures.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse intake manifold gaskets.
• Install intake manifold nuts and bolts in two steps in the numerical order as shown.
NOTE:
After installation, it is necessary to re-calibrate the electric throttle control actuator as follows:
1. Perform the "Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning" when harness connector of the electric throttle con-
trol actuator is disconnected. Refer to EC-682, "Work Procedure"
.
2. Perform the "Idle Air Volume Learning" when the electric throttle control actuator is replaced. Refer to EC-
683, "Work Procedure".
3. Install the quick connector. Refer to EM-163, "Removal and Installation"
.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Make sure there are no fuel leaks at the connections as follows:
1. Apply fuel pressure to fuel lines by turning ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). Then check for fuel leaks at connections.
2. Start the engine and rev it up and check for fuel leaks at connections. WARNING:
Do not touch engine immediately after stopping as engine is extremely hot.
NOTE:
Use mirrors for checking on connections out of the direct line of sight.

quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-11, "FOR USA AND CANADA : Fluids and Lubricants"
.
• Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
• Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel leak-
age at connection points.
• Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.
• Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration. NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside timing chain tensioner dr ops after removal and installation, slack in the guide
may generate a pounding noise during and just after engine start. However, this is normal. Noise will stop
after hydraulic pressure rises.
• Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leak age of fuel, exhaust gas, or any oils/fluids including
engine oil and engine coolant.
• Bleed air from passages in lines and hoses, such as in cooling system.
• After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to spec- ified level, if necessary.

INSPECTION OF CAMSHAFT SPROCKET (INT) OIL GROOVE
WARNING:
• Check when engine is cold so as to pr event burns from any splashing engine oil.
CAUTION:
• Perform this inspection only when DTC P0011 is detected in self-diagnostic results of CONSULT and
it is directed according to inspection procedure of EC section. Refer to EC-716, "Diagnosis Proce-
dure".
1. Check engine oil level. Refer to MA-26, "ENGINE OIL : Inspection"
.
2. Perform the following procedure so as to prevent the engine from being unintentionally started while
checking.
a. Release fuel pressure. Refer to FL-5, "Inspection"
.
b. Disconnect ignition coil and injector harness connectors if practical.
3. Remove intake valve timing control solenoid valve.
4. Crank engine, and then make sure that engine oil comes out from intake valve timing control solenoid valve cover oil hole.
End cranking after checking.
WARNING:
Be careful not to touch rotating parts (drive belts, idler pul-
ley, and crankshaft pulley, etc.).
CAUTION:
• Engine oil may squirt from intake valve timing control solenoid valve installation hole during cranking. Use a
shop cloth to prevent engi ne oil from splashing on
worker, engine components and vehicle.
• Do not allow engine oil to get on rubber components such
as drive belts or engine mount insulators. I mmediately wipe off any splashed engine oil.
5. Clean oil groove between oil strainer and intake valve timing control solenoid valve if engine oil does not come out from intake valve timing control solenoid valve cover oil hole.
6. Remove components between intake valve timing c ontrol solenoid valve and camshaft sprocket (INT),
and then check each oil groove for clogging.
• Clean oil groove if necessary.
7. After inspection, installation of the remaining components is in the reverse order of removal.
