• Q: How to remove the intake manifold on 2008 Scion xB?

  A: The removal process for a 2AZ-FE intake manifold requires as the first step to discharge fuel system pressure. You should begin by taking off the windshield wiper arm cover before moving on to the front wiper arm and blade assembly removal from left and right sides. Proceed by removing the hood to cowl top seal while also taking off the ventilator louvers from both right and left sides of the cowl top. Begin by removing both the front wiper motor along with its link then proceed to remove the outer cowl top panel. The technician must detach three key components: the No. 1 engine cover sub-assembly followed by the air cleaner cap sub-assembly with the No. 1 air cleaner hose after which the throttle body assembly must be separated. The fuel tube sub-assembly requires disconnection which includes taking off the EFI fuel pipe clamp followed by disconnecting the fuel tube. Disassemble the fuel delivery pipe sub-assembly with its fuel tube sub-assembly through injector connector and camshaft oil control valve connector and air fuel ratio sensor connector disconnects and by removing the wire harness and fuel tube sub-assembly. The delivery pipe sub-assembly comes out when you remove the two bolts and then separate the No. 1 delivery pipe spacer and install the four insulators from the cylinder head. Take out the intake manifold by disconnecting the ventilation hose and the union to connector tube hose before removing five bolts along with two nuts followed by the ventilation hose and the bolt for the vacuum hose clamp and then the union to connector tube hose and throttle hose.
