The intake manifold gaskets are four rings that must be properly seated in their respective grooves corresponding to the intake ducts; once the new gaskets are in place, proceed to install the manifold onto the cylinder head, tightening the respective fixing bolts using a torque wrench: before applying the manifold, ensure that there are no dirt or residue on the cylinder head surface.

Next, apply the new gaskets to the manifold section where the air filter housing with throttle body will be installed.
