I have a non-EGR 2.2 intake manifold. I'm in Colorado, 80919
You pay shipping and I can strip it down (less weight) and ship it out Monday.
Larry
Thanks Larry! That would be great!

Great advice . . . . .thanks! Any idea what year range of manifolds will fit my '94 Legacy EJ22?
-
Just cracked a 94 Legacy Intake manifold, will most years fit? This engine was not a California car and I will need to CARB this car in order to smog it in California - do I really need a California intake, what is the difference between a California intake and others? I ask because I see these intakes listed this way on EBay . . thank you!

You can't torque to the same spec with multiple gaskets. They crush more on the edges and will cause the manifold to bend and crack.
You need to remove one or both sets of gaskets and use silicone RTV or anaerobic sealant on the flange.
Remove the manifold, if the crack is not through the intake runner, you can use JB weld to re-attach the broken peice. You'll have to clean the paint off of the area around it and be sure to pu the manifold on a perfectly flat surface. Use a large clamp to hold the peice tight to the manifold.
Thanks, somewhere, I was advised to used two gaskets when going with the phenolic spacer . . . I will pull intake tomorrow to see flange crack, I have a feeling that piece will come off in my hand when I remove . . . JB weld? Really? I know the stuff is strong . .

Not very common. What engine is it?
I have several manifolds I could send your way.
Larry
'94 Legacy, thanks and how much?
-
2/4 bank did just fine this way - used two gaskets on each side (one on each side of phenolic spacer)
-
All were snugged lightly then torqued centers first alternating and then outers. It cracked around 18 foot pounds . . . Engine is out of a '94 Legacy. Thanks!

I've had my intake off for weeks and had cleaned it, painted it and made 8mm phenolic spacers. Today, while torqueing down the flange bolts (new longer bolts with antiseize) I heard the unmistakenable "ting" and saw that the flange bolt closest to cylinder one by timing cover had cracked! I was torqueing to just 20 foot pounds when this happened and was torqueing in sequence. WTF! Is this common? Should I have it welded or just throw away and find a new intake? Some days . . . . . grrrrrrrrrrr

Anyone know? My engine is a '94, thanks!
-
There's a little tab/button in the middle of each connection you push in, then you can remove the connector.
Thank you!
-
Just want to ensure I do not break anything in disconnecting.
-
I have a '94 Legacy EJ22 and need to disconnect ECU - anything I need to know about removing connectors other than being careful? Are there clips? My connectors are yellow, do they simply pull straight out or are there clips to compress, etc.? Thank you!

3---4
1---2
radiator
It was harder to see in there than I hoped since there's some loom over the wires plus the wires are dirty/dusty.
4 definitely has a yellow with a red stripe. The other 4 wire was a darker color to be honest hard to tell because of the dirt looked like brown with a blue stripe possibly.
2 looked like green as one of the wires
1 had yellow with a red stripe for a wire (like 4 did too!) and yes brown as the other wire as you mentioned.
3 was blue with a white stripe and I didn't see the other too well.
Hey, thank you, that really helps! Thank you for taking the time!

If you get really in a jam I have a running '94 Legacy 2.2L that I could take a look at, it's just kind of cold and dark out at the moment haha.
So far, it seems that a brown ground wire is common for most years for #1 which then automatically establishes #3. What color wires do you have for #2 and #4? Thank you!
-
Thank you!

Thanks, now , anyone have a wiring diagram for a '94 Legacy?

Looking to correctly match the correct connector to the correct injector
-
Hello all, I removed my FI harness for repairs and concerned that I may not have them fitted properly to the correct injector. I am not worried about correct side as there is an obvious ground correction that orients this harness. That being said, how do I identify the FI connections correctly? Engine is a '94 EJ22 out of a Legacy. Thank you!

I have heard pretty good things about seafoam and lifters . . . anyone else? I am also replacing two small fuel line connections that live under intake, they were as hard as plastic from heat over the years. Would hate to try to replace these on the road
-
Do a basic engine tuneup. new airfilter, new ngk spark plugs, new spark plug wires, clean sensors, clean/replace pcv,etc. run seafoam or water through the intake to remove carbon...
Yes, I have been wanting to do the seafoam clean, will add some to the engine oil and drive before draining and will most likely clean upper end via PCV valve
-
You could clean your MAF sensor, you have to use MAF sensor cleaner IIRC.
Thanks, yes, did MAF too

Hi, just starting to put my EJ22 intake on after cleaning/painting, etc. So far, I replaced badly cracked knock sensor, cleaned crank and cam sensors, cleaned IACV, PCV, sprayed electrical connections with electrical contact cleaner,cleaned throttle body and sent out injectors for cleaning (one had too much resistance and the tech believed was not firing . . . in spite of this, I thought engine felt pretty good. I resealed CAT to muffler. Timing belt was done a year ago, plugs were changed recently. I did just learn that a faulty coolant sensor can lead to a run rich condition (how common is this?) and from my perspective, I was running rich prior - fuel mileage was not great. I am also replacing fuel pressure regulator as I noticed that I had the original still on this '94 Legacy EJ engine. Anything else to look for in order to make this engine run at peak efficiency? Thanks and happy holidays Forum!

Hello All, I have my intake off and while it is off, I wanted to reseal injectors and some of the reference articles I have read make it sound difficult. I am less concerned about removal but more about finding the correct o rings - anyone have a source with sizes or just sizes?. My injectors are black. the orings for the rail to manifold should be replaced too - anyone know the correct sizes for these as well? BIG THANKS!
Cracked intake manifold at Flange!

The JB weld tips are encouraging . . .tempted to do this just for fun and see how JB holds up. I met a tractor guy who JB'd a plate to the block where cylinder 4 had broken through. This piston removed and tractor ran on 3 cylinders for years!
