jonalfaspider 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2015 Hi guys, does anyone know if there is a guide for removing and cleaning or replacing the manifold on the 1.9 jtdm. I have removed upper turbo hose, throttle body and egr valve but not sure what's next. Any tips, advise or guides would be great, many thanks Jon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Smaky 73 Report post Posted March 22, 2015 More bad news, this requires the fuel pump to be removed to allow for removal of the intake manifold itself, which also means it's cambelt replacement time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
