Warning: Refer to Battery Disconnect Warning in the Preface section.

3. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
4. Disconnect the canister purge solenoid from the intake manifold and loosen the bracket bolt.
5. Drain the engine coolant. Refer to Cooling System Draining and Filling.
6. Disconnect the manifold air temperature sensor connector.
7. Disconnect the air intake tube from the throttle body.
8. Disconnect the electronic throttle control (ETC) connector.
9. Disconnect the manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor connector.
10. Disconnect the coolant hose at the throttle body.
11. Disconnect all of the necessary vacuum hoses, including the vacuum hose at the fuel pressure regulator and the brake booster vacuum hose at the intake manifold.
12. Remove the alternator-to-intake manifold strap bracket bolts and the strap.
13. Remove the fuel rail and the injector cover. Refer to Fuel Injection Fuel Rail Assembly Replacement.
14. Remove the alternator-to-intake manifold support bracket bolts.
15. Remove the alternator-to-intake manifold support bracket.
16. Remove the intake manifold support bracket bolt at the engine block and the intake manifold.
17. Remove the intake manifold support bracket.
18. Remove the intake manifold retaining bolts and the nuts in the sequence shown.
19. Remove the intake manifold.
20. Remove the intake manifold gasket.

Warning: Refer to Safety Glasses Warning in the Preface section.
