Vauxhall Vectra - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Vectra Vectra B, MK 2 - Years 1995-2002
Part: Engine
Operation: Intake manifold gasket replacement

It is advisable to carry out this maintenance only if you have good knowledge of mechanics as the disassembly of the intake manifold is not a real do-it-yourself operation. In any case, if you want to try your hand, you must certainly arm yourself with patience since to get to the fixing pins of the collector flange to the engine you have to remove a lot of stuff. First remove the air filter container, disconnect the battery and continue by disconnecting the sockets of the various sensors (mass air flow sensor, throttle body, ...), the fuel supply pipes and the accelerator control. Then proceed with disassembling the injection system by removing the injector rail and the injectors themselves: they are stuck and must be pulled hard to remove them. Finally, unscrew all the fixing pins of the manifold to be able to remove it.
