Installation is in the reverse order of removal. Note the following:
Intake Manifold
• If stud bolts were removed from cylinder head, install them and tighten to the specified torque.
• Tighten all nuts and bolts to the specified torque in two or more
steps in numerical order as shown.
• Adjust neutral position steering angle sensor.
• Erase CPU memory.
• Perform the "Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning" when harness connector of electric throttle control
actuator is disconnected. Refer to EC-124, "Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning"
.
• Perform the "Idle Air Volume Learning" and "Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning" when electric throttle
control actuator is replaced. Refer to EC-125, "Idle Air Volume Learning"
.
