How to remove and replace the right-hand exhaust manifold on 2009 Ford F-150?

Question

Accepted Answer

Starting the process requires placing the vehicle in neutral position while it sits on a hoist. The first step is to take out the starter along with right-hand inner fenderwell. The first step involves removing four exhaust manifold-to-dual converter Y-pipe flange nuts while you must also detach the two dual converter Y-pipe-to-exhaust pipe bolts. The first step is to adjust the accessory drive belt tensioner clockwise to separate the belt from the A/C compressor before removing the three mounting bolts for relocating the A/C compressor. Start by removing three bolts fastening the right-hand exhaust manifold heat shield before discarding eight exhaust manifold nuts and four rear studs. Eliminate the right-hand exhaust manifold from the structure while getting rid of the gaskets which must be discarded. Installation begins by checking and cleaning the exhaust manifold before using four new front studs which need to be secured at 12 Nm (106 lb-in). Position new gaskets along with the right-hand exhaust manifold then secure four new rear studs which need to be tightened to 12 Nm (106 lb-in). Begin by installing eight new exhaust manifold nuts just tight enough and then proceed to the specified sequence to achieve a torque of 25 Nm (18 lb-ft). Screw the heat shield into position before securing its bolts at 10 Nm torque (89 lb-in). The A/C compressor should be positioned next before adjusting the three bolts until they reach 25 Nm torque (18 lb-ft). Use the accessory drive belt tensioner to spread it clockwise until the accessory drive belt properly fits on the A/C compressor. Fasten the two dual converter Y-pipe-to-exhaust pipe flange bolts by tightening them to 47 Nm (35 lb-ft). Also apply four new nuts to the dual converter Y-pipe exhaust manifold connection points but only torque them to 40 Nm (30 lb-ft). The last step includes reinstalling the right-hand inner fenderwell together with the starter.
