Part 2- 2002 Taurus/Sable Duratec 3.0 Intake re-assembly

Thank you! Thank you, Thank you! I had to get under the UIM to replace my coil and change plugs & plug wires, and PVC valve. Appreciate you and your assistant taking the time to record and post. This needs a link to TCCA. Thanks!!!

@venxxxxx - You may think it's ridiculous, but the bolt tightening sequence is important and documented in the manufacturer service manuals.

Thanks for this video used it to fix my Taurus. 1 question I replaced my pcv valve and now when I start my car the PCV hose collapses going into the intake. Its sucking the hose closed. Any ideas?

@peterjnapoli - Sounds like you need to replace that hose. They do break down from the heat and use over time. They often collapse where it connects underneath the intake.

You were right. I Replaced the pcv rubber groment and it no longer collapses. I also replaced the plugs wires and coil. Runs 98 % better although it wants to idle a little too long now. I'm having to tap the gas to get it to drop below 100 rpm's .

Thanks for this video! It was one of the most helpful I have come across on the internet. My 2006 Taurus (98,000 miles) was a little different from your 2002 but your video made changing my Plugs & Wires a Breeze! Great presentation & Camera work; from those of us who watch and learn it is much appreciated.

Thank you so much for this video. My dealer wanted $400 but after watching your video it's not so scary looking.

that was great, but what about the 2002 ford taurus ses 3.0 single over head cam engine!!! Please help.

I have a question about this intake manifold. Are the upper and the lower together? My brother is selling me a car that needs the lower intake replaced... I'm not quite sure what and where I'm supposed to be looking. Is this a job I can do myself like in your video?

thanks your video was a great help fixing my sable 2000, didn't want to put t much money into it only use it to get to work. it hasn't run this good for quite some time

Thanks alot I changed my pcv hose,valve and 2 other hoses in the process a few weeks ago hoping my intake gaskets werent affected ran great for two.weeks and the same codes csme back.same rough stary idle high low rpms searched around Nd found your video.after taking the first half off to get the pcv changed im no longer worried about taking the manifold apart so ill be replacing the intake upper and lower gaskets along with egr and do the fuel injector o rings while im at it, thank u very much

It's likely the ignition coil. In this car, it's a coil pack so you have to replace them all at once. Like 45 bucks at dave's discount or 1 a auto

10 lb-ft? torgue or 10 Nm = 89 lb-in on the manifold and fuel rail

Great Job, thank you for taking the time to make this and post!

how come theres not that many videos of mercury sable i want to take out the Sparks

This helped me a shit ton! And saved a lot of time searching the correct specs. Thank you
