Title: 2.3 Inlet Manifold
Post by Kenboy on Apr 26^th, 2009, 5:23pm

Hi I am trying to source one of these and I know it is going to be difficult in doing so, but should I have the good fortune I would like your advice on removing and replacing the said item. I cannot find any reference on the CD that I have.

Many Thanks Kenboy

The pdf "cylinder head renew" here:
http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/DOHC2-3manual.htm

gives a reasonable indication of what's involved. The 2 manifold studs/nuts need to come out as well as the 4 bolts.
There's a vertical bolt not shown that is tricky to get at,
you need get underneath with a long socket bar.
