The intake manifold gaskets are actually o-ring seals applied inside specific grooves made at the ends of the intake manifold itself, which must then be inserted and locked onto the cylinder head; once the old gaskets are removed, clean the seats thoroughly and apply the new gaskets (it is also recommended to lightly lubricate them with clean oil to facilitate fitting); ensure there are no dirt residues in the cylinder head seats and apply the manifold, pressing it until the ports are seated; then position the rocker cover and tighten the fixing bolts.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
