Mazda Protege Intake Manifold

The Mazda Protege Intake Manifold directs the fresh air or the finely mixed air-fuel mixture to individual cylinders to achieve the optimum amount of power and efficiency. Placed immediately after the throttle body, this Intake Manifold network of runners guarantees that all the combustion chambers receive equal portions, preventing lean misfiring and enhancing smooth acceleration. On editions that use carbureted or single-point injection, the part combines fuel and air within its passageways, whereas subsequent multi-port and direct-injection designs allow it to flow only air, allowing the fuel to be delivered by downstream injectors. The early Mazda models applied stout cast aluminum or iron models that were strong but had weight and heat dissipation issues. Newer Mazda assemblies changed to lightweight composite plastic and shed mass and cooled the charge for livelier throttle response. Some Protege models applied a variable length technique known as variable resonance induction that adjusts the valves to vary the length of the runners. High rpm uses short paths to increase horsepower in Helmholtz resonance, but long runners at low rpm increase torque by accelerating airflow. Irrespective of these design changes, all Intake Manifolds continue to seal to the head using gaskets, and any leakage disrupts the fuel maps of the computer, resulting in rough idle. Coolant galleries and the thermostat mount are also found on some units and provide a means to supply data to the ECU through sensors such as the engine coolant temperature or air charge temperature sensors. The various materials and the adaptive runner technology combined can be seen as showing how Mazda is currently trying to achieve the desired balance in strength, weight, and breathing efficiency in this very important Intake Manifold.

Mazda Protege Intake Manifold Parts and Q&A

  • Q: How to remove and install the intake manifold on Mazda Protege?
    A:
    Drain the cooling system and remove the intake manifold by first removing the negative cable off the battery. Readily the next step is to remove the air intake assembly of hose to the intake manifold assembly and, where available, resonance chamber over the radiator. Unplug accelerator and throttle cables of the intake assembly, labeling all wire harnesses, control cables and hoses attached to the intake manifold and disconnecting them. Next, remove the air intake plenum, throttle body and fuel rail. Unhook the electrical connector and line vacuum to fuel regulator vacuum solenoid, and pull out the solenoid. Lift the vehicle and place it on jackstands, which are secure, and then also remove the intake manifold bracket where it exists. Take out the intake manifold mounting bolts with the mounting above the engine and remove the intake manifold by lowering the vehicle if the need arises. Installation When installing, clean the mating surfaces with a gasket scraper and remove all remnants of old gasket material and sealant on the manifold and the cylinder head. Install new gaskets, the convex side should be facing the intake manifold and then place the manifold on the head and fix the nuts/bolts. Install the nuts/bolts to the required torque in three or four equal steps moving outwardly towards the center and alternating between the upper and lower bolts/nuts to avoid warping. Install the rest of the parts in reverse order, test the throttle linkage to work smoothly, check the level of coolant in the system, start up the engine, test whether it has no leaks and lastly take the vehicle to the road to test whether all the accessories work properly, including the cruise control system in case it has been installed.
