11. Lightly oil all bolt and stud threads. Clean and inspect the intake manifold and
throttle body mating surfaces.
Be careful when cleaning the gasket mating surfaces because aluminum

12. If available, position guide pins to aid in the alignment during installation.
13. Place a new gasket on the intake manifold.
14. Aligning the bolt holes, install the throttle body on the intake manifold. Install the
one stud bolt and the five retaining bolts. Tighten the bolts to 15-22 ft. lbs. (20-30
Nm).
15. Install the alternator brace to the throttle body and alternator bracket. Tighten the
nuts to 12 ft. lbs. (16 Nm).
16. Connect the PCV hose to the tube underneath the throttle body.
17. If equipped, install the EGR tube to the EGR valve and exhaust manifold fitting.
Tighten to 37 ft. lbs. (50 Nm).
18. Connect the vacuum hoses to their proper locations as marked during removal.
19. Engage the electrical connectors to the ACT, ISC and TP sensors.
20. Connect the throttle and TV cables to the throttle body linkage.
21. Connect the air cleaner duct hose to the throttle body and air cleaner assembly.
Tighten the clamp to 36 inch lbs. (4 Nm).

1. Connect the TV cable eye to the transaxle throttle
control lever link, then attach the cable boot to the
chain cover.
2. If equipped with the 3.0L engine, with the TV cable
mounted in the engine bracket, make sure the
threaded shank is fully retracted. To retract the
shank, pull up on the spring rest with the index
fingers and wiggle the top of the thread shank
through the spring with the thumbs.
3. If equipped with the 3.8L engine, the TV cable must
be unclipped from the right intake manifold clip. To
retract the shank, span the crack between the two
180° segments of the adjuster spring rest with a
suitable tool. Compress the spring by pushing the
rod toward the throttle body with the right hand.
While the spring is compressed, push the threaded
shank toward the spring with the index and middle
fingers of the left hand. Do not pull on the cable
sheath.
4. Attach the end of the TV cable to the throttle body.
5. If equipped with the 3.8L engine, rotate the throttle
