How to disassemble, seal and assemble intake manifold, 1.9 MultiJet 16v engines. Alfa Romeo 159

[@dusanposavac4845]

if u have a chance can u also film how to remove and clean intake manifold on 1.9 jtd 8V engine

[@alfaromeonoproblem]

Hello. That one is cheaper to send it to be cleaned. The time wasted trying is immense, send it out is your best bet.

Hello. 25nm

[@sup3rbosseur]

Niiice doone ! other very usefull video !! to bad for me its not plastic manifold but very interresting to see! Thank you

[@alfaromeonoproblem]

Hello. The plastic ones are very similar to remove too. On the 2.0 and 1.6 jtdm you have some extra steps

Another great video to keep in mind if I ever get around to doing our 1.9 croma, before the swirl flaps break off and fall in the engine hehe Some things I noticed and was wondering about, at 2:30 , that seems like a refurbished power steering line? Have you noticed the steering vibrate when turning the wheel stationary and idle? I got mine (159 2.4 210hp ) refurbished and now have a vibration and a slight whine from the pump, but it becomes silent when turning right, something to do with the flow of oil (brand new red Dexron 3 flushed multiple times) I believe? Do you think it's possible the power steering tank is at fault or a poorly refurbished pipe or both? Would it be worth trying a brand new tank (60€ vs 280€ for the pipe) first? Also at around 6:00 that oil seperator(?) at the bottom of the screen looks similarly dirty to mine, but mine is also covered in oil, i think one pipe has a little hole, do I need to replace the entire pipe or is it possible to somehow fix just that part? Also could the system be clogged and be the reason for a few drops of oil dripping from the turbo pipe, from the left side of the turbo? I also have some oil consumption, not sure how much, but it has dropped by 1-2 bars on the dash in 2kkm since I've had the car. The turbo also sounds like a siren, apparently common for the garret turbos, either from bad oil or clogged oil pipe or possible something to do with the oil seperator/breather system?

[@alfaromeonoproblem]

Hello. True oil separation system has no way to clog, it is a open system. The hard hoses are the reason of most of the leaks. For the power steering line repair, I do not recommend it. It will vibrate and do other problems. I only recommend a new line. With our without a new reservoir. For the reservoir and the fluid replacement I will do a tutorial video

[@EndstyleGG]

@@alfaromeonoproblem Is there considerable pressure in the oil seperation pipes from the top, possible to fix with some sort of ruber clamp or similar? Main project currently is a wheel bearing and bottom engine mount that is destroyed from that leaky power steering line, after that refurbsih injectors, I get a bit of a knocky sound at partial throttle around 2k rpm, but ONLY when it gets to 90c, possible bad remap?

[@alfaromeonoproblem]

@EndstyleGG for remap I cannot comment. The hoses on the breather system have no pressure at all.

[@EndstyleGG]

@@alfaromeonoproblem Thank you for the help, I'll try to find exactly where it's leaking and put something around it for now, until i find a replacement. As for the injectors it's truely strange, I get fairly bad corrections, some at -2 some at +1. I'll get them tested and cleaned soon, hopefully that solves the issue, but yeah recently I was driving in 2nd gear around 2200rpm, and just as I saw the temp guage go to 90, i noticed a clattery sound appear, need to check some parameters, maybe too high fuel pressure?

[@alfaromeonoproblem]

@EndstyleGG maybe injectors. Hi fuel pressure would give you a fault code and engine off

[@Johnnymc9_]

Bruno, do you recommend fitting oil catch cabs to pcv system in JTD engines? I know you have of them in your 155 you mentioned previously. Thanks 😊

[@alfaromeonoproblem]

Hello. JTD and MultiJet already have them from Factory. And quite good too

[@Johnnymc9_]

@@alfaromeonoproblem wow, okay. Do they require emptying? It's not something I've seen in the manual or even noticed the device 🙊

hello, I have an alfa romeo 147 1.9jtdm 110kw. I have a plastic suction there. is the procedure the same? I'm more interested in the procedure with the injection pump. just stop the injection pump with two screws and pull away? won't there be a problem with divorce? when do I loosen the screw on the injection pump?

Hello, I have a Fiat Stilo 1.9 JTD 16v 2004, and I want to remove the intake manifold to clean it. However, the high-pressure pump is in the way. Do I need to remove it along with the timing belt and the pulley, or can the pulley be locked in place while loosening the pump bolts?

Hello what size do you need for the fuel pump nut to remove it? And also what size screws do you need to secure the pulley of the pump ?

Just a question regarting the excess sealant, do you leave the bits that squeezed out inside? No way to get to them once its all sealed up

[@alfaromeonoproblem]

Hello. No way, just use the minimal correct amount. Sometimes I can get some bits out on the intake runners

[@arturaspranckevicius3947]

@@alfaromeonoproblem might be overthinking it a bit then as looking inside my intake i can see what squeezed out but i cant reach to remove it, ocd kicks in immediately thinking it will come loose and go into my intake valves 😂

[@alfaromeonoproblem]

@arturaspranckevicius3947 that's not the worst thing the intake valves usually "eat" carbon, dust, the swirl flaps! A bit of rtv is not good, but not terrible

[@BK-it6te]

Can you do 2.4 jTDM

[@alfaromeonoproblem]

Exactly the same.

[@Fs_Media]

Hi, very good video. My 147 has the plastic Intake manifold. Is it the same to disassemble? Engine Code 937A5000. Would you recommend to remove the swirls? EGR was shut down at 15.000km mileage. And I think the 147 has no Oil Catch Tank? Is that right? So would you recommend to install one, to prevent the intake manifold getting dirty?

[@alfaromeonoproblem]

Hello. All jtd, mjet, jtdm diesels have the oil separator. For the plastic manifold the procedure is the same, yes. And yes you may want to remove flaps

[@Garrett159R]

that was a really nice work. i have a 2009 1.9jtdm 16v manuel 159 and have a problem with it but can't find it. Problem is when the boost pressure builds and get to peak bar it suddenly drops to half and the acceleration slows and some cases acceleration stops. we changed map sensor, pierburg, pipes, throttle body nothing changed. i have the videos on my channel. one of the videos you can hear the sound changes when the boost drops. what could it be any ideas? Thanks anyways

[@alfaromeonoproblem]

Hello. Thanks for watching. That throttle body is not, is just a shut off valve. Can you do some diagnostics?

[@Garrett159R]

@@alfaromeonoproblem hi, we did diagnotics don't have any fault codes but didn't do the test while on the way we changed the maf and turbo pressure valve nothing change. The previous owners of the car may have installed the wrong software on the car. Could it be that the turbo pressure is higher than necessary, causing the wastegate to open and releasing pressure? or is there a crack somewhere (intake or exhaust manifold) that can't handle high pressure and couldn't hold it. because turbo can hold pressure below about 0.8 - 1.0 bar.

[@alfaromeonoproblem]

@Garrett159R Make sure to have the original software. By the way, that turbo doesn't have a waste gate. It's a vgt, or should be

why you have to block the timing belt in order to take off the intake manifold?

[@sids15able]

Hi can you help me, i have alfa 147 1.6 ts 77kw, my car would turn off when coasting in neutral. Went to mechanic to check codes and it was maf sensor, i bought new one and it still does the same thing. Also my rpms dance when in neutral. Here no one knows how to fix alfa's i'm on my own. Where do i start ?

[@alfaromeonoproblem]

Hello. Start with the basics. How are the spark plugs? How is compression? Air filter? Most importantly on those engines, is the timing done well? Is the mad you bought good quality? Remove the connector and drive it to see. Is the engine consuming oil?

[@sids15able]

Hmm i assumed all of those things you said before asking you. Brand new bosch sprak plugs 8 of them. Shop where i did timing belt said it was off 2 tooth, they did it corectly, also i asked about comp. they said compresion was good actualy wery vell for 2007 engine , did oil change and all new filters, 10w40 selenia oil it does not use extra oil. Also bought oem bosch maf waited for 2 weeks. When I disconect maf it runs very bad rpms wont drop below 1 K. I dont know how other 1.6 engines sound but there is "electrical" buzzing sound coming from throtle body. Can it be faulty throtle body ?

[@alfaromeonoproblem]

Very good info, thank you! It can be the throttle body, yes. Try to do a adaptation to see if it stays good even for a moment. Also you can remove it and clean the back side of it too.

[@sids15able]

Yes i cleaned it that was frist thing i did do ibut i did not have torx bit 45 to take whole th.body off so i cleaned front side frist then i took off whole body when bit arived and cleaned everything throtle body wasnt quite dirty but intake mainfold was dirty the part i could reach. How to do an a adaptation ? Also, if i change throtle body i tried finding brand new one i could't find it, so used one then i'm assuming you can't just put new one with out some computer work ?

[@alfaromeonoproblem]

@sids15able you have to do an adaptation every time you put a new one and or a cleaning. With a diagnosis machine
