Receiver — removal and installation

We remove the receiver to replace it or replace the gaskets, dismantle the intake pipe and exhaust manifold, as well as to access the fuel rail.

You will need a torque wrench to get the job done.

Removing

1. We prepare the car for operations (see "Vehicle preparation for maintenance and repair").

2. After loosening the hose clamp of the vacuum brake booster hose to the receiver pipe, remove the hose.



3. Remove the throttle body from the receiver studs (see "Throttle body - removal and installation") and take it aside without disconnecting the hoses from it.

4. Using a Phillips screwdriver, unscrew the screw securing the fuel tube holder to the bracket and remove the holder.



5. Using a 10 mm socket wrench, unscrew the two bolts securing the throttle cable bracket and set aside the bracket with the cable.




6. Using a 13 mm socket wrench, unscrew the five nuts securing the receiver to the intake manifold. Remove the tube holder bracket.



7. Disconnect the pressure regulator hose from the receiver nozzle.



8. Remove the receiver from the inlet pipe studs.



9. Remove the gasket and replace it.




The long studs on the intake manifold are fitted with spacers.

Installation

1. The installation of the receiver is carried out in reverse order.

2. Tighten the receiver mounting nuts with a torque of 21.6-26.8 Nm.
