Ford F8AZ-9424-CA Manifold Hardware Kit

Continue by disconnecting the PCV system and, if present, the canister purge line and EGR spacer coolant lines, draining the coolant if needed. Remove the six upper intake manifold retaining bolts and lift off the upper intake manifold and throttle body as an assembly from the lower intake manifold.

The electrical and vacuum connectors need to be disconnected from the coolant temperature sending unit, air charge temperature sensor, throttle positioner, idle speed control solenoid, EGA sensors, fuel injectors, and fuel charging assembly.

Disconnect the radiator, heater, and water pump bypass hoses.

Start by disconnecting the negative battery cable. Following that, unplug electrical connectors at the air bypass valve, throttle position sensor, and EGR position sensor. Detach the accelerator cable and transmission linkage from the throttle body assembly, remove the accelerator cable/Throttle Valve (TV) cable bracket from the intake manifold, and label and detach vacuum lines from the upper intake manifold vacuum tree, EGR valve, and fuel pressure regulator.

Various components that should be disconnected include the accelerator cable, automatic transmission cable, speed control linkage, ignition wire brackets, boots, wires, alternator, ignition coils, CID sensor, and multiple electrical connectors.
