Part: Air filter
Operation: Disassembly and cleaning of the intake manifold

In order to proceed with the disassembly of the intake manifold, first remove the plastic cover on the engine and the air filter container. At this point it is possible to start disassembling the manifold by removing all the fixing screws, including the wiring support brackets; in order to unscrew some of these screws, it is also necessary to remove the oil filter: once the screws in question have been removed, it is advisable to reposition the filter to prevent something from ending up inside. Once the manifold has been disassembled, remove the deflectors from the intake ports and remove the carbon residues using a metal brush and then washing and vacuuming the dirt to prevent it from ending up in the valve seats. Then also brush the deflectors, wash them and reassemble them. Replace the injector seals and reassemble the intake manifold in reverse order.
