Tools & materials
- Metric socket set (deep and shallow): common sizes 10, 12, 13, 14, 17, 19 mm
- 3/8" and 1/2" drive ratchet, extensions, universal joint
- Breaker bar and at least one long extension for leverage
- Torque wrench (range to cover ~10–150 Nm)
- Penetrating oil (PB Blaster, WD‑40 Specialist, etc.)
- Gasket scraper / razor blade / gasket remover tool
- Wire brush / rotary wire wheel (for flange cleaning)
- Soft-faced hammer or dead blow
- Stud extractor / vise grips and replacement studs/nuts (if studs break)
- Safety glasses, mechanic gloves, respirator (for heavy rust/dust), hearing protection
- Jack, jack stands or vehicle lift; wheel chocks
- Small containers to catch oil/coolant, shop rags
- New exhaust gaskets: exhaust manifold-to-head gasket; turbo inlet/outlet gaskets and crush washers for oil feed/return if turbo model; exhaust flange gaskets as needed (use OEM or correct OEM‑equivalent parts)
- Replacement hardware as needed (manifold nuts/bolts/studs, turbo bolts, clamps)
- Anti‑seize compound (aluminum or copper based) — use sparingly and only where appropriate (see notes)
- Optional: heat shield removal tools, nut splitter, small torch (for stubborn rusted nuts; use with extreme caution)
Safety precautions
- Work only on a cool engine and exhaust. Hot components cause severe burns.
- Disconnect negative battery terminal before starting (prevents shorts when working near alternator/turbo sensors).
- Support vehicle securely on jack stands if undercar access required. Never rely on a jack alone.
- Wear eye protection and gloves. Use a respirator when scraping heavy rust or old gasket material.
- Capture oil/coolant before disconnecting turbo oil/coolant lines. Keep everything clean to prevent contamination.
- If using heat to free bolts, be careful around fuel lines, electrical wiring and nearby components. Do not overheat oxygen sensors or modern wiring harness.
- Older gaskets may contain asbestos — treat dust with care and avoid inhalation. Wet-scrape and vacuum where possible.
Overview — what is replaced
- For naturally aspirated engines (4BB1, 4BD1, 6BB1, 6BD1, 6BG1): exhaust manifold-to-head gasket is the usual item.
- For turbocharged engines (4BDIT, 6BD1T, 6BG1T): you often replace the manifold-to-head gasket plus turbo inlet/outlet gaskets and crush washers on oil lines. If removing turbo, you may need new manifold-to-turbo gasket and new oil line crush washers.
Step-by-step procedure
1) Preparation
- Park on level ground, chock wheels. Let engine cool completely.
- Disconnect negative battery terminal.
- Raise vehicle if necessary and support on jack stands. Ensure safe access to exhaust manifold/turbo.
- Label and photograph connections (helpful if unfamiliar).
2) Remove obstacles and heat shields
- Remove air intake piping and intercooler pipes (turbo models) to gain access.
- Remove heat shields covering manifold/turbo (typically 10–12 mm fasteners). Keep hardware organized.
- Remove O2 sensor or exhaust temperature sensor if it’s near the flange (careful with wires).
3) Support exhaust downstream
- Support the exhaust pipe downstream of the manifold/turbo with a jack and wood block or use a hanger support to prevent stress on remaining fasteners when you unbolt the manifold.
4) Soak fasteners with penetrating oil
- Liberally spray manifold-to-head nuts/bolts and exhaust flange nuts with penetrating oil. Let soak 10–20 minutes. Reapply to stubborn bolts and allow longer as needed.
5) Remove manifold-to-head nuts/bolts (and turbo if needed)
- Use the correct socket (deep on studs) and breaker bar/ratchet. Turn nuts a bit at a time to avoid snapping.
- Work in a pattern to loosen evenly, not all the way on one side first (helps avoid warping).
- For turbo models: remove turbo mounting nuts/bolts and leave oil/coolant lines attached until turbo is picked up slightly. If removing turbo completely: drain and cap oil feed and return lines; remove clamps, remove bracket, remove turbo. Catch any oil that drains, and replace crush washers on reassembly.
6) Remove exhaust manifold / turbo
- Carefully remove the manifold (or turbo) from the head. If it’s seized, apply penetrating oil and use a soft‑face hammer on the flange to release. Avoid stamping or bending the flange.
- Note broken studs or heavily corroded bolts — mark for replacement.
7) Inspect and clean mating surfaces
- Inspect exhaust manifold flange and cylinder head mating surface for cracks, warpage, corrosion. Use a straightedge and feeler gauge; anything above manufacturer tolerance means repair or replacement.
- Remove old gasket material using a gasket scraper and wire brush. For aluminum heads, be gentle to avoid gouging.
- Clean studs threads with a wire brush or tap. Replace studs that are damaged or stretched.
8) Prepare new gasket and hardware
- Match the new gasket to the flange. Do not reuse old gasket.
- If turbo oil/coolant lines were disconnected use new crush washers and seals.
- Apply a small dab of anti‑seize to bolt threads only if recommended by the manual. Note: torque specs assume dry threads; if using anti‑seize, torques may be affected — consult manual. Many technicians prefer to lightly oil bolts (for anti-corrosion) but not heavy anti‑seize unless specified.
9) Install new gasket & manifold/turbo
- Position new gasket on head (use dowel pins or studs to hold in place if present).
- Place manifold/turbo onto the gasket. Hand‑thread nuts/bolts to ensure alignment.
10) Tightening & torque sequence
- Tighten nuts/bolts finger tight, then progressively tighten in a cross pattern/sequence to seat the gasket.
- Final torque to manufacturer specification. If you don’t have the exact value, use a torque wrench and follow a staged approach: snug all to ~20–30% of final torque, then 60–70%, then final torque—but you must obtain exact specifications from the workshop manual for final torque. (Typical manifold nut ranges vary widely by engine; do not guess final torque.)
- For turbo oil line banjos use new crush washers and torque to specified value in the manual.
11) Reinstall everything removed
- Reinstall heat shields, sensors (O2 sensor), intake/intercooler piping, and any brackets. Reconnect exhaust hangers and support.
- Reconnect battery negative terminal.
12) Leak check and test run
- Start engine and let idle. Check for exhaust leaks at manifold and turbo flanges (listen for ticking; you may briefly use a rag to detect pressure, but be cautious of moving parts).
- Check for oil or coolant leaks around turbo oil/coolant lines.
- After a short cool-run cycle, re-torque manifold nuts if the manual recommends re-torque after heat cycles (some manuals specify re-torque after engine heat-up).
Tool usage details / tips
- Penetrating oil: spray and allow time to work. Repeat as required. Tap lightly on the nut with a hammer to help penetration.
- Breaker bar: use smooth, gradual force. Avoid sudden jerks that can snap studs.
- Torque wrench: set to the specified torque and tighten in stages. Use correct drive and sockets; avoid cheater bars on the torque wrench.
- Stud extractor / vise grips: use when studs are rounded; heat the stud base (not the head) and apply penetrating oil first. If stud breaks, use an extractor or drill out with caution — threading in a heli-coil or replacing stud may be required.
- Wire wheel: use gently on flanges to remove rust; excessive removal of metal will cause poor sealing.
- Heat: a propane torch can help free stuck nuts, but use only to heat the nut area and avoid overheating oil lines, sensors, and rubber.
Common pitfalls to avoid
- Reusing old gasket — always replace the gasket.
- Not replacing crush washers on turbo oil/coolant lines — leads to leaks.
- Overheating bolts or sensors when using a torch — can damage sensors and wiring.
- Not supporting exhaust — may bend manifold or stress remaining fasteners.
- Overtorquing or undertorquing bolts — causes warping or leaks; always use a torque wrench and correct specs.
- Not addressing corroded/broken studs — a snapped stud in the head may require extraction or head repair.
- Using heavy gasket sealants indiscriminately — most modern metal/composite exhaust gaskets do not require extra sealant; it can interfere with proper seating.
- Not checking flatness — a warped manifold or head surface won’t seal even with a new gasket.
- Forgetting to replace O2 sensor washers or anti-seize where manufacturer recommends — leads to sensor damage on removal.
Replacement parts checklist
- Exhaust manifold-to-head gasket (OEM or exact fit)
- Turbo inlet/outlet gaskets and turbo-to-manifold gasket (for turbo engines)
- Turbo oil feed/return crush washers (copper or specified material)
- Manifold nuts/bolts/studs if corroded or damaged
- Exhaust flange gaskets / clamps as required
- New heat shield bolts if corroded
Final notes
- Get the exact torque values and tightening sequence from the Isuzu workshop manual for your specific engine model before final tightening.
- If the manifold or turbo flange is warped or cracked, replace or have it machined — gaskets won’t seal a warped flange.
- If studs break, don’t force damaged hardware; properly extract and replace to avoid head damage.
Done.
