How to remove and replace the right-hand exhaust manifold on 2009 Ford Expedition?

Question

Accepted Answer

The procedure for right-hand exhaust manifold installation starts with placing the vehicle in neutral position on a hoist. The first step involves removing the right-hand inner fenderwell together with the right-hand engine support insulator. Proceed by removing each of the two bolts that secure the exhaust manifold heat shield before taking out the eight exhaust manifold nuts and eight studs and finally removing the exhaust manifold discarding all components including nuts and studs. Cleaning the sealing surfaces requires avoidance of metal scrapers along with wire brushes or abrasive tools since they can cause damage through leaks; it is best to employ a plastic scraper and use metal surface prep according to packaging instructions. Check the exhaust manifold for damage by disposing of the two exhaust manifold gaskets before inspection. Install the exhaust manifold with two new gaskets by using eight new studs which need tightening to 12 Nm (106 lb-in). After positioning two new exhaust manifold gaskets with the exhaust manifold beneath it fit the eight new stud manifold nuts with torque to 25 Nm (18 lb-ft) in correct order. The reinstallation process begins by fastening the exhaust manifold heat shield with 10 Nm (89 lb-in) torque on its two bolts. Following this, you should install the right-hand engine support insulator then the right-hand inner fenderwell.
