What do you have for engine size ? this is for 3.1L Disconnect negative battery cable. Remove air cleaner and duct assembly. Disconnect control cables and cable bracket from throttle body. Disconnect coolant (thermostat) by-pass pipe from its retainer on upper intake manifold. Disconnect vacuum modulator pipe (A/T). Disconnect power brake booster hose from manifold. Remove engine mount struts between top of radiator panel and left side of engine so engine can be rotated forward to access ignition coil pack. Rotate engine forward. Remove ignition coil pack. Remove generator brackets. Disconnect vacuum lines and electrical connectors as necessary. Remove MAP sensor. Remove EGR valve. Remove bolts securing upper intake manifold to lower intake manifold. Remove upper intake manifold and throttle body as an assembly.
