Reinstall the throttle body air inlet duct after filling the cooling system with fluid.
Q: How to replace the throttle body coolant pipe on Buick LaCrosse?
A: To replace the Throttle Body heater hose/pipe, you should start by draining the cooling system partially. Relocate the brake booster hose and the wiring harness from the remote power steering fluid reservoir. Unscrew the mounting bolts (1, 3) of the remote power steering fluid reservoir and it should be placed aside. Remove the Wiper Motor module to expose the rear of Throttle Body heater inlet hose. For you to remove the heated oxygen sensor connector, clear the backside of the Throttle Body heater inlet hose/pipe of the sensor and use a 90 degree needle nose pliers to remove Throttle Body heater inlet hose from the water crossover. Remove the electrical connector at the coil pack , then remove the cam shaft position (CMP), the left knock sensor connector, and the front thottle body heater inlet hose/pipe vacuum pipe retainer. Unplug the vacuum brake booster hose from the vacuum source and extract the bolts holding the Throttle Body heater inlet hose/pipe to the intake plenum and the engine rear lift bracket out. Unplug the Throttle Body heater inlet hose from the Throttle Body, and remove the hose/pipe from the engine. For installation, place this Throttle Body heater inlet hose/pipe to the engine (where) and connect it to Throttle Body (where). Mount the retention bolts for the hose/pipe to the intake plenum and the engine rear lift bracket, and tighten to 9 n.m (80 lb in). Reattach the vacuum brake booster hose to the vacuum source and attach the cmp sensor connector, the left knock sensor connector, and the vacuum pipe retainer to the front of the Throttle Body heater inlet hose/pipe. Services the thread the coil pack and Throttle Body heater inlet hose back to the water crossover with 90 degrees needle nose pliers. Connect back the heated oxygen sensor connector to the rear of the Throttle Body heater inlet hose/pipe, reconnect the Wiper Motor module and tighten securing the remote power steering fluid reservoir using its mounting bolts (1, 3), tightening the reservoir to intake plenum bolts to 9 n.m (80 lb in) and the reservoir to cylinder head bolt to 25 n.m (18 lb ft). Eventually, reattach the brake booster hose and the wiring harness to the remote power steering fluid reservoir and top up the cooling system.
Q: How to replace the outlet coolant pipe (RPO LY7) on Buick Rendezvous?
A: To bleed out the coolant outlet pipe (RPO LY7), drain the cooling system. Reposition the radiator outlet hose clamp at the coolant outlet pipe and remove the radiator outlet hose from pipe. Then temperature sensor cable while supporting the camshaft carrier should be undone.next, you should remove the coolant outlet pipe bolts and then you also remove the coolant outlet pipe itself and then throw the old o-ring seal. For installation, you will connect a new coolant outlet pipe o-ring seal on the outlet pipe and put it on. Make sure to tighten the outlet pipe to thermostat housing bolt to 23 n.m (17 lb ft) as well as the outlet pipe to engine bolt to 50 n.m (37 lb ft). Recouple the radiator outlet hose to the coolant outlet pipe, relocate the hose clamp, and fill up the cooling system.
