How do you remove intake on a 2004 Kia Sedona?

Answer 1

First, disconnect the positive terminal on the battery. Then there is 2 nuts on either end of the manifold and 5 other 13mm bolts between the to nuts (DO NOT MIX THEM UP!). Then there is also three 13mm bolts on the firewall passenger side of the engine holding on the lift hook, also you need to take off 2 13mm bolts on the top holding the wire MiG bracket on, numerous 10mm bolts holding on sensors to the top of the manifold. Then there are the power booster brake vacuum line and two vacuum hoses to the throttle body that need to come off too, not to mention 4 13mm bolts holding the throttle body on it (first, loosen the radiator clamps holding the air induction system to the throttle body itself) and one 12mm bolt on the backside of the throttle body itself. Be very careful not to damage the throttle body gasket between the intake and the throttle body! (paper)- intake=(metal)
