2000 Ford Crown Victoria Intake Manifold Parts Q&A

• Q: How to service and repair the intake manifold on 2000 Ford Crown Victoria?

  A: The first step of servicing and repairing the intake manifold requires wiper arm and pivot shaft removal as well as air cleaner outlet tube detachment. Service and repair of the intake manifold requires disconnecting the fuel line and all fuel charging wiring electrical connectors from eight ignition coils and eight fuel injectors as well as the fuel pressure sensor, fuel temperature sensor, engine coolant temperature sensor, A/C pressure transducer, cylinder head temperature sensor jumper, camshaft position sensor, generator, throttle position sensor, radio ignition interference capacitor, EGR vacuum regulator solenoid, differential pressure feedback EGR, and idle air control valve. The installation of the valve wire lead begins with separating it from the generator bracket before removing the battery cable. Under the power distribution box access cover one should remove the nut along with wiring and disconnect the fuel charging wiring electrical connectors located at the inner fender splash shield. The throttle body requires the removal of throttle cable and speed control actuator cable before the bolts can be removed. You should place these cables along with their bracket out of the workspace. Begin by putting the fuel charging wiring to the side and then remove the fuel lines and disconnect the differential pressure feedback EGR hoses and vacuum line of the EGR valve. Dismantle the throttle body adapter vacuum supply from the main chassis as well as separate vacuum lines from the throttle body adapter and the crankcase ventilation tube at two points. The technician disconnects two vacuum lines from both the EGR vacuum regulator solenoid and the EGR tube connected to the EGR valve. Start by removing bolts from the isolation valve then proceed with removing the four bolts securing both the fuel injection supply manifold and fuel injectors while they remain as an assembly. The job requires separating the heater water hose from the intake manifold and the upper radiator hose from the water outlet adapter before removing bolts and eight ignition coils. The procedure begins by removing the upper generator support bracket bolts then the water outlet adapter bolts followed by water thermostat removal and an O-ring. Release the intake manifold securing bolts and proceed to remove the components along with their gaskets before cleaning all sealing areas.
