Swapping intake manifold.

[RoadRunner]

I read the fuel pressure release procedure (pita) but what about pressurizing the system afterwards? Anyone have any tips for swapping the intake manifold? I'd prefer to do it myself rather than pay Dodge to do it unless it's a total nightmare.

All you have to do is cycle the ignition on for about 5 seconds, than off, do this about 4 to 5 times and you should be ready to start right up.

I just left the ignition on for about 15 secs when I did mine, started up with no problem.

Not a bad DIY job, although the rear bolts on the drivers side may be problematic, I know they were in my case. I would try to remove those two before working on anything else.

Thanks, I think I'll give it a go this weekend. Some of the header bolts were a pain as well, so I'm getting used to it
