Exhaust Manifold Replacement

Exhaust Manifold Replacement - Jeep 4.0L

4 жыл бұрын

Today we are going to do an exhaust manifold replacement on a Jeep TJ with a 4.0L straight six engine. This is a pretty common break on the 4.0L motors and we will cover how to remove it, replace the manifold gasket and installation. It seems like a pain at first but if you take it step by step you can certainly do it yourself!

On a Jeep, everything that breaks is an opportunity for an upgrade

@trjnsd6874 4 жыл бұрын

I had a '95 ZJ for 19 years and over 300,000 miles, and never had the head off the 4.0L ! But..the cracked exhaust manifold was replaced once with an OEM, which also cracked, Then with a "bellows" type expanding manifold, which robbed power. I then tried a Banks Engineering unit, which worked great and produced good power increase...until it cracked. Finally I tried a Borla, which sounded great, and I could feel the power increase! All was well again...until the old ZJ was hit from behind by a Peterbuilt and turned into an accordion. But the Borla was a great choice and lasted longer than any others. I sure wish I'd had a video like yours to watch b4 I did this the first time! Nice job, and entertaining too!

when i did my manifold i didnt have the alingment dowels for the intake seated properly so when the bolts were tight there was a gap between the intake and head. First time i fired it it reved to probably 8000 rpm lol.

Pro Tip: After removing a carb or throttle body, tape over the opening so screws and little things don't accidentally fall into the engine.

Thank you for this How To. I found it helped (very much) to have a helper (my girlfriend) for grabbing dropped bolts & holding the intake manifold while we maneuvered the header & gasket in & out. We left the intake manifold mostly together, only removing the air intake duct.

throttle body can stay on and you only have to tag 4 injector plugs because no 1 and no 6 can not get mixed up and tps and every other plug is different and can not be mixed at all so no need for them to tagged at all , and underneath the last 3 inlet manifold bottom bolts can be wound in 1 thread when putting it all back together before putting inlet manifold in place and you can put inlet manifold in place over the 2 mounting /positioning studs and put a top bolt in place on any top position and then you can get the bottom done up easy without having to line up the 3 impossible to see holes in head to thread bolt in

@seansevey6072 4 жыл бұрын

It is a good idea to put a rag or a shop towel into the throttle body throat or the manifold opening when you have the air cleaner off. Bolts, nuts, pistachios have a way of falling in and if you don't see them, they will get ingested into the engine.

There should be like 7 bolts and 2 studs on the end. I just bought an exhaust hardware kit, and that's what I got. The two studs hold the exhaust on, and the bolts hold both the intake and the exhaust on. That was very common on inlines in the 60's. Some had these little 3/4 washer clips things that also held it all together.
