Notice: Do not use solvent of any type when cleaning the gasket surfaces on the intake manifold and the throttle body assembly, as damage to the gasket surfaces and throttle body assembly may result.

1. Drain the radiator coolant.
2. Remove the air intake tube.
3. Disconnect the TP sensor electrical connector.



4. Disconnect the MAF sensor electrical connector.
5. Disconnect the ECT sensor electrical connector.



6. Disconnect the accelerator control and cruise control cables.



7. Remove the accelerator control cable bracket.



8. Remove the nuts and the bolt holding the throttle body to the intake manifold.
9. Remove the throttle body assembly.

1. Install a new throttle body gasket if necessary.
2. Reinstall the throttle body assembly.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

3. Reinstall the throttle body retaining nuts and bolt.

Tighten
Tighten the throttle body retaining nuts and the bolt to 10 N·m (89  lb in).




4. Connect the TP sensor electrical connector.



5. Connect the MAF sensor electrical connector.
6. Connect the ECT sensor electrical connector.



7. Reinstall the accelerator control cable bracket.



8. Connect the accelerator control and cruise control cables.
9. Check for complete throttle opening and closing positions by operating the accelerator pedal. Also check for poor carpet fit under the accelerator pedal. The throttle should operate freely without binding between full closed and wide open throttle.
10. Reinstall the air intake tube.
11. Refill the radiator in order to replace the lost coolant.
