  Q: What is the Intake Manifold Removal Process for Dodge Ram 1500 and Ram 1500?

  A: For 2009 models, disconnect the negative battery terminals, wiring from the EGR temperature sensor and EGR valve actuator, oil dipstick tube fasteners, intercooler outlet tube, air transfer tube, and air inlet. Disconnect the fuel supply tubes and lines, wiring from the sensor at the rear of the fuel rail, and high pressure fuel line from the dump valve. For 2010 and later models, disconnect the left intercooler tube from the EGR air flow control valve, remove the EGR crossover tube, and disconnect interfering wiring harnesses. Remove the oil dipstick tube bolts and intake manifold bolts, and install a new gasket. To access the intake air heater grids, disconnect the heater cable, positive and ground cables, intake air heater manifold bolts, and dipstick tube mounting bracket bolt. Disconnect the fuel injector wiring harness and pressure sensor wiring harness, and remove the air intake heater mounting bolts. During reassembly, use new upper and lower heater block gaskets. To replace the intake air heater relay, disconnect the negative battery terminals, label and disconnect the trigger wires, remove the nuts from the cable terminals, and remove the relay mounting bracket bolts.
