3.2 Installationstrin

1. Forberedelse: Ensure the engine is cool. Disconnect the vehicle's battery. Relieve fuel system pressure if necessary.
2. Remove Intake Manifold: Carefully disconnect all hoses, wires, and linkages attached to the intake manifold. Unbolt and remove the existing intake manifold from the engine. Refer to your vehicle's service manual for specific removal procedures.
3. Rene overflader: Thoroughly clean both the cylinder head mating surface and the intake manifold mating surface. Remove any old gasket material or debris to ensure a proper seal.
4. Install First Gasket: Place one of the provided gaskets onto the cylinder head mating surface. Ensure it is correctly aligned with all bolt holes and ports.
5. Position Afstandsstykke: Carefully place the Skunk2 Ultra Series Intake Manifold Spacer on top of the first gasket, aligning it with the bolt holes.
6. Install Second Gasket: Place the second provided gasket on top of the spacer.
7. Reinstall Intake Manifold: Carefully lower the intake manifold onto the second gasket and the spacer assembly, aligning all bolt holes.
8. Fastgør med bolte: Insert the new, longer bolts provided with the kit through the intake manifold, gaskets, and spacer, into the cylinder head. Hand-tighten all bolts first.
9. Momentbolte: Following the manufacturer's recommended torque sequence and specifications for your intake manifold, progressively tighten the bolts using a torque wrench. Ensure even pressure across the manifold to prevent warping or leaks.
10. Tilslut komponenterne igen: Reconnect all hoses, wires, and linkages that were disconnected during removal. Double-check all connections for security.
11. Afsluttende kontrol: Reconnect the battery. Start the engine and check for any vacuum leaks or unusual noises. Allow the engine to reach operating temperature and re-check for leaks.

Note: The provided bolts are specifically sized for use with this spacer. Using incorrect bolts may lead to improper fitment or damage.

4. Driftsmæssige overvejelser

After installation, the Skunk2 Ultra Series Intake Manifold Spacer will increase the plenum volume, which can affect engine tuning. It is advisable to monitor engine performance and consider professional tuning to optimize air-fuel ratios and maximize the benefits of the increased plenum volume.

• Engine Tuning: The increased plenum volume may require adjustments to engine management system (ECU) parameters for optimal performance and efficiency.
• Effektivitet: Expect potential changes in engine response, particularly in the mid to high RPM range, due to improved airflow dynamics.

5. Vedligeholdelse

The Skunk2 Ultra Series Intake Manifold Spacer is designed for durability and requires minimal maintenance. However, periodic inspection is recommended to ensure continued optimal performance.

• Inspektion af pakning: Periodically inspect the gaskets for any signs of wear, cracking, or leaks. Replace gaskets if any degradation is observed.
• Kontrol af boltmoment: After initial installation and approximately 500 miles of driving, re-check the torque of the intake manifold bolts to ensure they remain properly tightened.
• Rensning: If the spacer needs cleaning during other engine maintenance, use a mild degreaser and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or tools that could damage the aluminum finish.

6. Fejlfinding

This section addresses common issues that may arise after installation of the intake manifold spacer.

If issues persist, it is recommended to consult with a certified automotive technician or contact Skunk2 Racing customer support.
