• DISASSEMBLY - LEFT SIDE
1. Disconnect negative cable from battery.
2. Use penetrating oil on all nuts and bolts to be
removed. This will prevent the possibility of broken
or stripped nuts and bolts.
3. Remove air cleaner system (note position of line and
hose connections).
4. Disconnect A.I.R. (air injection reactor) tube from
exhaust manifold (if applicable).
5. Disconnect spark plug wires.
6. Disconnect temperature sensor wire.
7. Remove bolts and exhaust manifold.
• DISASSEMBLY - RIGHT SIDE
1. Disconnect A.I.R. injection tube from exhaust
manifold (if applicable).
2. Disconnect spark plug wires.
3. Remove dipstick and both sections of dipstick tube.
4. Remove bolts and exhaust manifold.
5. Clean exhaust flange surfaces on cylinder heads at
this time.
• DISASSEMBLY - CROSSOVER PIPE
1. Raise vehicle and support with jackstands.
2. Remove O2 sensor, being careful not to rupture or
destroy the unit.
WARNING: Do not clean this unit in any cleaning
solvent and do not rupture wire.
3. Making sure the converter is cool, remove the
exhaust crossover pipe. You may find it helpful to
clamp the converter to the crossmember using
pieces of wood and C-clamps. This will allow you to
"work" the crossover pipe loose from the converter
more easily. If the pipe is frozen to the converter, it
can be heated with a Propane torch (or equivalent) to
help loosen the joint.
• ASSEMBLY - LEFT SIDE
1. Install T.E.S. flange gasket and one 3/8"-16 x 1" bolt,
lock washer, and flat washer at rearmost bolt hole
(leave bolt loose enough to accept T.E.S.).
2. Install left side T.E.S. manifold from bottom side. If
desired, it can be installed from top side by removing
steering column through-bolt and moving steering
column aside.
3. Install all bolts and washers on left side and tighten.
4. Replace original equipment spark plug ends on
cylinders #3 and #5 with 60° connectors and boots
provided in kit.

boots provided in kit.
6. Re-connect right side spark plug wires.
7. Discard O.E.M. heat stove pipe and replace with
flexible tubing supplied (if applicable).
8. To prevent contact with the hot T.E.S. tubing, use
nylon tie wrap (supplied) to secure the heater hose to
the a.c. dryer.
9. Remove A.I.R. check valves from original manifolds
and re-install them on T.E.S. Re-connect all A.I.R.
injection hoses at this time (if applicable).
• CROSSOVER PIPE ASSEMBLY
1. Slip crossover pipe into Y-pipe assembly and
extension tube onto Y-pipe assembly outlet (do not
clamp).
2. Place donut gaskets on extensions and slip tube into
muffler inlet. Align parts and start flange bolts.
3. Check alignment of all parts, then secure bolts.
4. Install U-clamps and tighten all nuts and bolts.
5. Re-install 02 sensor. Use anti-seize on threads of
sensor and torque to 30 ft/lbs. Re-route 02 sensor
wire from wire loom to 02 sensor making sure all
wires are clear of exhaust system (02 sensor
extension wire is included in kit).
6. Lower vehicle to the ground.
CAUTION: Before operating you vehicle, check to
ensure that there is adequate clearance between all
parts of your T.E.S. (including A.I.R. tubes) and all
