Before applying the new gasket to the intake manifold, it is crucial to clean the surface on both the manifold and cylinder head sides, removing any dirt and deposits that could compromise the gasket's adhesion and seal. Once the cleaning is complete, align the new gasket with the intake ports, centring it on the two dowels present on the manifold (there is no need to apply gasket sealant) and proceed with the installation of the manifold itself, tightening the respective fixing bolts with a torque wrench.
