You will be able to find the part anywhere from $ 200.00 to $ 500.00. Depends how hard you look. I have seen them on the net for $ 250.00. The labor takes 6 to 8 hours. It is not really a completed job, just that there is a lot of parts to remove. If you are not sure of what you have to do, then just price it out to the best shop. If you decide to do the job yourself, then take some pic's of the engine before. You will need the tool's.
No, not as standard.
Intake manifold gaskets are leaking, intake manifold is warped.
alot
The torque specification for the intake manifold bolts on a 2000 Mercury Grand Marquis is typically around 11-15 ft-lbs (15-20 Nm). It's important to follow a specific tightening sequence, usually starting from the center and working outward, to ensure even pressure. Always refer to a repair manual for your specific vehicle for the most accurate information.
No, not for the hose but, I have seen the metal bypass tube that the hose connects to, rust out and cause a coolant leak out the back of the engine. The intake manifold would have to be removed to replace that metal tube.
To replace the intake manifold on a 1997 Mercury Grand Marquis, first, disconnect the battery and remove any components obstructing access, such as the air intake and throttle body. Then, drain the coolant and remove the intake manifold bolts using a socket wrench, carefully lifting the manifold off the engine. Clean the mating surfaces, apply a new gasket, and install the new manifold by reversing the removal process, ensuring all connections are secure and the system is properly refilled with coolant before starting the engine.
For the manifold see link below for detailed info on the class action settlement and detailed DIY instructions... http://www.autoclinix.com/Manifold.htm Is the intake cracked? Is it a 4.6L? If so, a recent class action settlement extends the warranty, on the intake, to 70,000 miles. Don't replace with OEM manifold.
YES , a 1990 Mercury Grand Marquis 5.0 liter V8 engine has a PCV valve ( Motorcraft part number EV-98-B ) going into the intake manifold
mass air flow sensors are generally located in the air passage between the air filter and the intake manifold.
If you are talking about the coolant cross-over, on the intake, then the new modified one has to be installed. cost around $ 250.00 for the part, and 6 to 8 hours labor.
The Villager has an upper and lower intake manifold. It is at the top of the engine with the throttle body attached to it.
There are 2; one on each side of the intake manifold toward the front. See pics and description here... http://www.autoclinix.com/Manifold3.htm
