Air Filters and Intake Manifolds

look in a chiltons repair manual from the library for your year car.

Pretty straight forward. You must remove the intake manifold in order to replace the gasket.

No.

Carry away exhaust gases from the engine. Intake carries a/f mix to cylinders.

You need to go to a car parts store, and get a repair manual for your car. They cost about $16.00 Or, go to a Public Library.

- I actually just replaced mine last year on a 2.4l. If you aren't mechanically inclined you will want to take it to a garage. It is realatively hard. First you have to put the car up on ramps and slid back to the firewall. You have to remove the 3 10mm bolts on the heat sheild. you can then remove the lower bolts to the down pipe. the upper bolts you have to use a combination of under the car and under the hood. i had to remove part of my intake to get to the bolts. if you thought that was hard its even harder to remove the actual manifold. you have to have it sidewaysand twist it around alot to get it out. it took me the better half of two days to change it out but it was better than paying $600 dollars to get it done.

It's between the battery and the brake fluid reservoir. Flip back the two clips to open.

you could bolt on headers or a new intake you could cam it have it boarded out or put a 4bbl carb put a high rise intake on it there is alot of differaunt ways some pretty cheap or some that could cost you an arm or a leg it depends WA you want to do with the car

I would think that you have a leak in your exhaust system.

Driver side under car. Just behind the driver seat.

you have a broken head gasket or cracked head.

Empty out your glovebox, Everything will fall out anyway. Open glovebox the squeeze the sides together unntil the latches allow it it drop all the way down. You will see a black plastic box about 8" or so long and 2 or 3" in height. That is the case for the filter. You may need a flat screwdriver to unlatch the cover of the case from the clips on the sides..ends, the filter element will slide right out and replace filter and re assemble the same way opposite

The cabin air filter is located behind the glove compartment. It is really easy to access, just remove the side clips holding the glove compartment into the console and unhook the elastic string that serves as a guide when you open the glove compartment. It should take no more than 10 minutes to replace the air filter and you'll save a large amount of money doing it yourself. I had two Hyundai service shops quote $99 and $79.95 to change out the cabin air filter. I purchased a new filter for $20 at a Hyundai service parts dealer where I had my oil change and installed it myself.

in a 2203 gt 5 door, after your directions, I just got to see the filter door further disassemble is required to access the area

2000 sonata glsv6- Open glove box. On the right side you will see a rectangular piece of plastic that enters the box thru a hole. This is the closing retractor. Pull it in, then back it out of the hole and let go. On both sides of the box you will see a plastic square. These are the rubber stops. Pry up the front of these tabs then slide them towards you, and wiggle the stops thru and into the box. Now the box flops down all the way. On the bottom you will see a metal hinge. Remove the two bolts and two Phillips screws. On the top, remove the two Phillips screws and the nut in the center. The box will stay attached by the wiring to the box lamp and lamp plunger, so be carefull not to yank it away. Whew! You are now looking at heating shroud. In the center there is a lid over the filter. It runs vertically and is removed by pulling down on a plastic clip that is part of the lid. It is on the bottom. Pull it down and the two tabs at the top will come out of their mounts. The filter is then pulled out by its center tab handle. Vaccuum the area, insert new filter ($11.00 on sale at NAPA). Reverse installation. Now wasn't that fun!

coolant by pass hose needs repaced under intake manifold to water 1996 Lincoln town car

There is a 5"x12" rectangular airbox on the right side middle of the engine that has 4 Phillips screws, one on each corner. Use a little bit of elbox grease and an appropriate sized screw driver to loosen screws until they rotate freely.

There's no need to remove them completely. Carefully slide air intake tube from the left side of the airbox (e.g using a flathead screwdriver). Remove airbox top cover taking care not to tear any of rubber hoses around.

Pull out the old air filter noting the positioning of the filter and replace with compatible filter (Fram CA9564 Heavy Duty Air Filter works) available at walmart or amazon. Also be sure to clear out debris caught in the bottom of the airbox before adding new filter.

Replace the airbox cover and tighten the screws. Re-attach air intake making sure the rubber tab from the air intake fits into the notch in the airbox.

You are done.

Most vehicles with an air conditioning system will have one. It is likely located somewhere behind the dash near the blower intake. Look in your owner's manual or go to an auto parts store and ask for one. They can tell you very quickly if it has one.

Do it yourself, or mechanic? If you do it yourself your looking at $17.14 from partstrain.com. However, im sure if you took it to a mechanic they would tell you at least $80.

I own a 96, so I don't know how similar the engine compartment configuration is. But, if it is like mine, you just simply remove the lid and filter and there are a series of bolts that are easily accessible. Be sure to disconnect the intake from the throttle body to make it easier on yourself.

LAWN SPRINKLERS HAVE A VERY LARGE PIPE(USUALLY A 1 INCH) WHILE THE REST OF THE HOME USUALLY HAS A SMALLER LINE. WHEN THE SPRINKLER VALVE IS OPENED, WATER FROM THE UPPER PART OF THE HOUSE CAN DRAIN INTO THE SPRINKLER SYSTEM LEAVING AIR POCKETS. WHEN YOU SHUT OFF THE SPRINKLER THIS AIR IS EJECTED FROM THE HOUSE FIXTURES. OTHER THAN THE SURPRISE, IT SHOULD POSE NO PROBLEM.

Its on the driver side under the hood next to the fender should be in a square box with 2 or 3 snaps on it. Hope this helps>>>>>>>>>>>

Okay. First, breathe deep because you will get aggravated, I know I was. Facing the vehicle from the front, find the nut on the top right of the air filter housing and remove it COMPLETELY. Next, locate and LOOSEN the hose clamp screw on the short piece of hose going from the rear of the filter housing to the intake on the engine. Gently slide the hose off of the intake. Now squeeze the two tabs on either side of the hose section toward each other and separate it from the filter housing. Do not disconnect the sensors attached to the hose as you only need to move the hose a little bit toward the windshield/firewall for extra room. On the left side of the filter housing, lift off the wire connection clipped there. Again, no need to disconnect, just leave it hanging. Now lift the housing from the right side off of the bolt where you removed the nut. The only other thing holding it in place are two pins underneath on the right side so lift about an inch to clear them. Finally, push housing toward the windshield/firewall and then rotate the end closest to the bumper up and out bringing the filter out with it. Remove filter, clean out the housing, insert new filter, and have fun reinstalling in reverse order. Make sure to properly seat the hose back onto the intake or it could allow dirt to enter the engine. Yippee!!!!!

The trick is to remove the air filter housing entirely from the engine compartment. Then it's simple to remove the air filter cylinder and replace. When the housing is out you can dump or blow out any debris. Install the new air filter on the hose and clip into housing. Then return housing making sure you line it up with the two bottom pins and put the nut back on. Tighten the hose clamp back on the intake and you're done. This job takes about 10-minutes. If you have Jiffy Lube or some other quick oil change place replace this air filter, then check to ensure that the wiring harness and hoses are reattached properly. Sometimes they do an poor job.
