Installing an Exhaust Manifold on a Jeep Grand Cherokee
Preparation
Before the exhaust manifold on a Jeep Grand Cherokee can be installed, the vehicle must be prepped. The battery and air cleaning assembly, including the filter, must be removed; and all coolants, such as windshield cleaning solution and radiator fluid, should be drained and flushed from the system. Disconnect the air-conditioner and detach the starter motor and all heating hoses. You are removing them to gain access to the cylinder head.
Removing Existing Parts
Remove the manifold by, first, taking out the heat-shield components and disconnecting the starter motor. Detach the Y-pipe, and unbolt and lift out the manifold, along with the gasket between the unit and the engine. Rusty bolts and fasteners are usually treated and cleaned before the new manifold is installed.
Installation
Before the exhaust manifold is attached to the cylinder head, covering all six cylinders, position the manifold gasket over the edge of the opening. Then set the manifold into place over the gasket. Tighten the bolts, starting in the center and moving toward the ends, and reconnect the unit to the Y-pipe. Reinstall the disassembled parts in the opposite order in which they were removed.
