The intake manifold on certain Ford F-150 trucks with 5.0 liter Coyote engines tends to fail prematurely, particularly when subjected to road salt and other harsh conditions.
Rough idle, backfiring, and overheating accompanied by a check engine light can quickly lead to an expensive repair.
The cause of the failure in the original equipment design is corrosion of the exposed carbon steel rods that operate the charge motion control valve (CMCV, more commonly called IMRC), which can seize or rust to the point of a rod end actually shearing off, disabling position sensors and manifold air flaps.
The dealer solution is costly and requires purchasing an entire new manifold and related components, while many aftermarket solutions simply mirror the OEM design and invite similar future failures.
This new OE FIX manifold features upgraded stainless steel CMCV shafts that are more corrosion-resistant to provide a more permanent repair than the dealer solution.
The design also saves installation costs by allowing functional components, including the MAP sensor, actuators, and fuel hoses, to be swapped from the old manifold.
For a complete and professional repair, this manifold includes O-rings for the MAP sensor, fuel injectors, PCV outlet, an EVAP purge valve, pre-installed mounting bolts, and self-tapping screws.
This part is compatible with the following vehicles.
Before purchasing, enter your vehicle trim in the garage tool to confirm fitment.
