• Q: How to service and repair the intake manifold on 2000 Chevrolet Cavalier?

  A: Relieve the pressure of the fuel system at first to service and repair the Intake Manifold. Remove the air cleaner inlet duct, the resonator, and resonator bracket. Pull out the accelerator and cruise control cables, then pull out the vacuum hoses at the Throttle Body. Take the map, tp, and iac sensors, along with the 2 bolts on the accelerator bracket. Next, unfasten the Throttle Body, fuel feed, and fuel inlet pipe retainers and get the Intake Manifold attaching nuts and bolts out and remove the Intake Manifold from the engine. Clean the mating surfaces on the Cylinder Head and the Intake Manifold and check the manifold for cracks, broken flanges, gasket surface damages. For installation, install Intake Manifold assembly and secure with Intake Manifold to Cylinder Head bolts and nuts using the fastener notice in service precautions. Installed the fuel inlet pipe retainers, tighten the bolts to 24 nm (18 inch lbs) and install the Throttle Body, connect the fuel feed and return quick- connection fittings and attach the two bolts for the accelerator cable bracket. Reconnect the MAP Sensor, tp sensor and iac sensor and after doing so, then install the resonator bracket, resonator, and air cleaner inlet duct.
