Air cleaner assembly and intake duct components

Air cleaner assembly - 4-cylinder engines

Withdrawal

1. Disconnect the negative battery cable (chapter 5 paragraph 1).

2. Remove the air mass meter from the air cleaner cover (chapter 6).

3. Remove the rubber retainer from the air cleaner on its left side (see fig. 4.3).



4. Disconnect the crankcase ventilation hose from the air cleaner housing or from the fitting of the head cover (see fig. 4.4).



5. Remove the air cleaner assembly by lifting it off the bushings and separating it from the air intake duct in the inner wing panel.

Installation

6. Installation - in the reverse order of removal. Make sure that the lugs of the housing are seated in the bushings and that the air cleaner flare is fully inserted into the connecting bushing (see fig. 4.6).

Air cleaner assembly - V-shaped 6-cylinder engines

Withdrawal

7. Disconnect the negative battery cable (chapter 5 paragraph 1).

8. Disconnect the wiring from the intake air temperature sensor on the side of the air cleaner.

10. Release a collar and disconnect a hose from an output branch pipe of an air cleaner.

11. On early models, remove the rubber retainer from the air cleaner on its left side.

Note: Late models do not have this lock.

12. Remove the air cleaner assembly by lifting it off the bushings and disconnecting the air intake duct from its left side.

13. Inspect the mounting sleeves and, if necessary, replace them.

Installation

14. Install the bushings correctly on the bracket.

15. Push housing tabs into bushings and attach air intake duct.

16. Put on the rubber retainer (if available) on the air cleaner on its left side.

17. Connect the hose to the air cleaner outlet and tighten the clamp.

Note: Pay attention to the position of the mounting lug.

18. Connect the wiring to the air temperature sensor.

19. Connect the wiring to the air flow meter.

20. Connect the negative battery cable (chapter 5 paragraph 1).

Intake Air Duct Resonator - Early Model 4-Cylinder Engines

Withdrawal

21. Remove the resonator support bracket bolts from the engine compartment front cross member. Loosen the screws on the two clamps that secure the resonator to the hoses of the air mass meter and the intake air duct chamber. While tilting the resonator away from the thermostat housing, disconnect the intake air temperature sensor connector (see fig. 4.21). Remove the resonator.

Installation

22. Installation - in the reverse order of removal.

Air Intake Chamber - Early Model 4-Cylinder Engines

Withdrawal

23. Pull out the rubber plugs covering the camera fasteners and remove the fasteners (see fig. 4.23, a-c). Loosen the clamp screw that secures the intake duct chamber to the hose or resonator. Alternatively, the air mass meter can be detached from the air cleaner.






24. Raise the camera and disconnect the vacuum hose (if available) from its underside. Pull out the prechamber, pay attention to the two rubber spacers (stud-mounted throttle body), as well as on the O-ring installed in the inlet socket of the prechamber (see fig. 4.24, a-d).

Installation

25. Installation - in the reverse order of removal. Install the O-ring and bushings securely.

Components located under the wing

Withdrawal

26. Remove the locker of the left wheel arch (chapter 11).

27. Turn out bolts and remove an air inlet and both resonators.

Installation

28. Installation - in the reverse order of removal.
