Well, there's only one intake manifold (the silverish manifold) so no
need for plural. The intake manifold is closest to the firewall (opposite the exhaust manifold on the cylinder head). To clean the EGR you typically either need to remove the EGR valve and spray and scrape it clear with some throttle body cleaner (or carbuerator cleaner). Occasionally the intake manifold ports need cleaning. Search the groups for EGR cleaning. This typically involves drilling 3/8ths inch or so hole in the EGR runners in the intake manifold and cleaning them with a wire brush. If you're not very experienced or mechanically inclined, I'd recommend taking it to the shop to get this done. Otherwise, locate the ports and do the cleaning youself. The www.helm.com manual helps, but it won't tell you the complete procedure, (just how to locate them). Cleaning them should be common sense once you can see inside -- Justin |
