7. Throttle Body, Fuel Rail and Injectors

NOTE: The intake manifold, throttle body, fuel injection rail and fuel injectors may be removed as an assembly. If not servicing the individual components, remove the manifold as a complete assembly.





THROTTLE BODY
1. Remove the electrical wire harness connectors from the throttle body.
2. Remove the vapor vent pipe hose and clamp.

CAUTION: Handle the electronic throttle control components carefully. Use cleanliness in order to prevent damage. Do not drop the electronic throttle control components. Do not roughly handle the electronic throttle control components. Do not immerse the electronic throttle control components in cleaning solvents of any type.

3. Remove the throttle body bolts.
4. Remove the throttle body and gasket.

NOTE: DO NOT reuse the throttle body gasket. Install a NEW gasket during assembly.

5. Discard the gasket.





FUEL RAIL AND INJECTORS
1. Remove the hose from the fuel pressure regulator.

WARNING: The fuel rail stop bracket must be installed onto the intake manifold assembly. The stop bracket serves as a protective shield for the fuel rail in the event of a vehicle frontal crash. If the fuel rail stop bracket is not installed and the vehicle is involved in a frontal crash, fuel could be sprayed possibly causing a fire and personal injury from burns.

2. Remove the fuel rail bolts.
3. Remove the fuel rail (with injectors), lifting evenly from both sides of the fuel rail until all the injectors have left their bores.
