Goal: remove, inspect, repair or replace the exhaust manifold on Toyota 2H (naturally aspirated diesel) and 12H‑T (turbocharged H‑series diesel) engines — explained step‑by‑step for a beginner mechanic, with full component descriptions, theory, common failures and practical tips.

Safety first (do these every time)
- Work on a cool engine. Exhaust parts stay hot for a long time.
- Wear gloves, eye protection, and a dust mask for rust/soot.
- Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
- If you lift the vehicle, use jack stands on solid supports — do not rely on a jack.
- Have a fire extinguisher handy when using heat/torches on rusted bolts.

What the exhaust manifold is and why it matters (theory, simple)
- Function: the exhaust manifold collects exhaust gases from each cylinder and directs them into the exhaust system (and to the turbo on the 12H‑T). Think of the manifold like multiple garden hoses (one per cylinder) converging into a funnel. It must seal tightly to the cylinder head so no gas escapes.
- For a turbo engine (12H‑T) the manifold must deliver hot, high‑energy exhaust to the turbo turbine. Leaks reduce turbo spool, lower power and increase soot/heat in the engine bay.
- On the 2H (non‑turbo) it simply directs pulses to the exhaust pipe — leaks create noise, reduced scavenging efficiency and can allow hot exhaust to cook nearby components.
- Symptoms of a problem: ticking/hissing exhaust noise near the manifold, reduced power, black soot around bolts/joints, strong exhaust smell in engine bay, visible cracks, broken studs/bolts, overheating of nearby parts, low turbo boost (12H‑T).

Main components you will deal with (detailed descriptions)
- Exhaust manifold (cast iron or cast steel): bolted to the cylinder head; has individual runner ports for each cylinder and a collector flange where the exhaust outlet or turbo mounts. Heavy, brittle (cast iron) on these engines.
- Manifold gasket: thin composite, multi‑layer steel (MLS) or asbestos‑style on older trucks. Seals the manifold to the head; must be replaced on removal.
- Manifold bolts or studs and nuts: studs often threaded into the head with nuts on the manifold side — studs are common because they survive heat cycles better. They are heat‑resistant steel; they can seize or shear from corrosion/age.
- Heat shield(s): thin stamped steel plates bolted over the manifold to protect wiring, hoses and the hood. Must be removed and reinstalled.
- Turbo inlet flange (12H‑T): the collector flange mates to the turbo exhaust housing with a gasket. Turbo has oil feed and return lines nearby — be careful not to disturb or leak them.
- EGR pipe/EGR valve (if fitted): exhaust gas recirculation hardware may bolt to the manifold; remove and reseal as needed.
- Exhaust downpipe/pipe flanges: the pipe downstream from the manifold connects with nuts/bolts. On the 12H‑T this is the turbine outlet or downpipe flange.
- Heat studs/anti‑vibration hardware: sometimes studs have lock washers, nuts or special washers to retain them.

Tools and consumables you’ll need
- Socket set with extensions, deep sockets; combination wrenches.
- Torque wrench (important).
- Penetrating oil (PB Blaster / Liquid Wrench).
- Impact wrench or breaker bar for stuck nuts (careful with studs).
- Stud extractor / easy-outs and left‑hand drill bits for broken studs.
- Anti‑seize compound for new bolts/studs (high temp).
- New manifold gasket(s), new bolts/studs/nuts (recommended).
- Wire brush, gasket scraper, clean rags, brake cleaner.
- Straightedge and feeler gauge (check flange flatness).
- Hammer and cold chisel (for frozen studs removal), heat gun or propane torch for stubborn rust (use caution).
- Jack and stands, engine support strap if manifolds remove engine support point.
- Replacement heat shield hardware and gaskets if needed.

Step‑by‑step removal (general sequence — follow the engine bay layout)
1. Preparation
- Cool engine, disconnect battery negative terminal.
- Raise vehicle and support if you need access from below.
- Apply penetrating oil generously to all manifold studs/bolts and the turbo/downpipe flange bolts. Let soak 15–30 minutes or more for old rusted nuts.

2. Remove heat shields and accessories
- Remove any heat shields covering the manifold. Keep track of shield orientation and hardware.
- Remove or move aside wiring, hoses, vacuum lines, or fuel return lines that are routed near the manifold. Label or photograph for reassembly.
- On 12H‑T: disconnect oil feed and return lines to the turbo only if you are removing the turbo. Avoid opening them otherwise. Cap any openings if lines are removed to avoid contamination.

3. Disconnect downstream pipe/turbo
- On 2H: unbolt the exhaust pipe/downpipe flange from the manifold and support the pipe.
- On 12H‑T: unbolt the turbo inlet flange from the manifold (or unbolt the turbine housing from the manifold if the turbo is mounted separately). Support the turbo so it doesn’t hang from oil lines.

4. Remove EGR and related pipes
- If an EGR pipe bolts to the manifold, unbolt it and cap or block the EGR ports if necessary. These bolts are often rusted; use penetrating oil and careful technique.

5. Remove manifold studs/nuts
- IMPORTANT: remove nuts incrementally and in a pattern to avoid warping. If studs are used, remove nuts and lift manifold off studs; if bolts, remove in sequence.
- Support the manifold as you remove the last fasteners — it’s heavy and brittle. Have a helper catch it or use a hoist.
- If studs are stuck, heat the head area around the stud (not the bolt) with a torch cautiously to expand metal slightly and crack corrosion, then use an impact wrench or breaker bar to back out the stud/nut.

6. Remove the manifold
- Lift manifold out carefully. Inspect underside and head ports for soot, cracks, or broken studs.

Common problems during removal and fixes
- Seized studs/nuts: use penetrating oil, heat, impact wrench. If stud breaks flush, use a stud extractor or left‑hand drill bit and easy‑out. If extractor fails, you may need to drill and retap or use a helicoil/insert kit.
- Cracked manifold: cast iron can crack. If crack is at the flange, sometimes welding or brazing is possible but often replacement is better.
- Warped flange: if flange is not flat, gasket will not seal — the flange can sometimes be milled flat on a machine, or replace the manifold.
- Soot and carbon blocking ports: remove carbon with a stiff brush and solvent, but avoid getting debris into the engine. Plug ports or use rags to prevent anything falling into cylinders.

Inspection and measurement
- Clean mating surfaces (head and manifold) with gasket scraper and wire brush — be gentle on the head.
- Check manifold flange flatness with a straightedge and feeler gauge. Any gap over ~0.5 mm (0.02") is suspect; refer to manual for limits.
- Inspect manifold runners and collector for cracks, broken bolt holes, or severe corrosion.
- Inspect studs: replace any stretched, corroded or damaged studs/nuts. Replace the gasket always.

Reinstallation (best practices)
1. New gasket and hardware
- Always use a new exhaust manifold gasket. Metal facing and correct orientation matters.
- Replace studs or bolts with correct grade and heat‑resistant hardware. Apply anti‑seize to threads (avoid coating the mating face).

2. Mount manifold
- Place manifold into position carefully. If studs are used, ease onto studs without forcing. For bolts, hand‑start threads.
- Tighten nuts/bolts finger tight in a criss‑cross pattern to draw manifold evenly to the head.

3. Torque sequence
- Gradually torque bolts/nuts in 2–3 stages following a criss‑cross or manufacturer sequence to final torque. Typical guidance (verify with factory manual):
- M8 sized bolts/studs: ~20–35 Nm (15–25 lb·ft)
- M10 sized bolts/studs: ~40–60 Nm (30–45 lb·ft)
- M12 sized bolts/studs: ~70–100 Nm (50–75 lb·ft)
- These are approximate — get exact specs from Toyota service manual for 2H/12H‑T. Over‑torquing can strip threads or crack the manifold.

4. Reattach turbo/downpipe and EGR
- Reinstall the turbo inlet flange/collector and gaskets. If you removed turbo oil lines, reinstall with new crush washers and torque to spec. Check for leaks.
- Reconnect EGR pipe and any sensors or heat shields.

5. Final checks
- Reconnect battery.
- Start engine and let idle. Listen for leaks (a ticking/hissing near the manifold indicates a leak). Carefully feel for leaks (do not put hands near moving/hot parts). Look for black soot at joints.
- After a short heat cycle, re‑check torque on manifold bolts/nuts (many manufacturers recommend retorquing after initial heat cycle).

What can go wrong — detailed failure modes and signs
- Leaking gasket: symptoms — ticking noise on cold start, increased noise as engine revs, soot deposits, loss of low‑end torque, in turbo engines lower boost. Cause — old gasket, warped flange, loose bolts.
- Cracked manifold: symptoms — loud exhaust noise, hot spots under hood, visible crack or pieces missing. Cause — thermal stress, corrosion, impact.
- Broken/stretched studs: symptoms — loose manifold, exhaust leak, difficulty removing. Cause — corrosion, repeated heat cycles, over‑torque. Remedy — replace studs, repair head threads if needed.
- Blocked ports (carbon build up): symptoms — reduced performance, uneven cylinder running (diesel soot), potential backpressure. Remedy — clean ports, inspect injector timing and combustion.
- Leaking turbo connection (12H‑T): symptoms — reduced boost, soot/leaks at flange, poor acceleration. Remedy — replace gasket, ensure flange faces are flat.
- Damaged turbo oil lines (12H‑T): cause severe engine damage if left open — oil starvation or leak. Avoid loosening oil lines unless necessary and cap if opened.

Repair or replacement choices
- If manifold is cracked or severely warped, replacement is usually the best option; cast manifolds are cheap versus repeated welding.
- If flange is slightly warped, a machine shop can mill it flat.
- Replace studs and nuts when corroded — use high‑temperature replacements.
- Use OEM or high‑quality aftermarket gaskets sized for 2H or 12H‑T.

Troubleshooting quick checklist after reassembly
- Listen for leaks at idle and at revs.
- Inspect visually for soot or black streaks at joints.
- For 12H‑T: check turbo boost pressure (vacuum/boost gauge) compared to spec.
- Check for oil leaks from turbo oil lines.
- After a test drive, re‑inspect fasteners.

Practical tips and analogies
- Analogy: manifold = a set of straws (cylinders) funneling into a bottle (collector/turbo). Any hole in the straw or loose fit at the bottle mouth makes the flow messy, noisy and inefficient.
- Take lots of photos during disassembly so you remember hose/routing.
- Replace small items like heat shield bolts and studs — they’ll rust again.
- Use penetrating oil days in advance on seized hardware for best results.
- If a stud breaks, don’t rush to drill deeper; try heating and backing it out first to avoid damaging the head threads.

Final note
- Exact torque specs and tightening sequences are engine‑specific. For the Toyota 2H and 12H‑T you should consult the Toyota service manual for the model year you’re working on for final torque values and sequences. Follow manufacturer specs for turbo oil line torque and any torque‑to‑yield fasteners.

This gives you the how, why and what to watch for. Follow safety practices, replace gaskets and corroded hardware, check flange flatness, and be prepared for stuck studs — that’s the most common headache.

1) Brief theory of how the clutch transmits power and how it fails
- The clutch is a friction coupling between the engine flywheel and the transmission input shaft. The driven (friction) plate is clamped between the flywheel and the pressure plate. Clamp force from the diaphragm or coil springs generates normal force N; torque capacity ≈ μ × N × effective radius.
- Disengagement: the release/throw‑out bearing pushes the diaphragm spring center, reducing clamp force so the disc can rotate freely relative to the flywheel. Proper centering on the input shaft ensures smooth re‑engagement.
- Common failure modes: worn friction material (reduced μ or thickness → slip), glazed/heat‑spotted or scored flywheel or pressure plate (reduced μ, uneven contact → chatter or grab), weakened diaphragm springs (loss of clamp force → slip), oil contamination from rear main or input seal (μ → 0 at contaminated areas), cracked/broken rivets, warped surfaces (uneven engagement → judder), bad pilot bearing or release bearing (noise, poor centering, drag).

2) Diagnostic checks before removal (why these matter)
- Confirm symptoms: slipping under load, poor acceleration, high revs without torque, grabbing/judder at engagement, noisy release, difficulty selecting gears. These differentiate slip vs engagement problems.
- Check for oil on external bellhousing/around input seal or rear main (oil on disc = replace clutch and fix seal first; otherwise replacement will fail).
- Measure pedal free play and hydraulic condition (if hydraulic slave/master leak or low pressure causes incomplete disengagement; replacing disc alone won’t fix hydraulic faults).
Why: you must correct root cause (oil leaks, hydraulic faults) or new clutch will fail quickly.

3) Preparation
- Safety & support: chock wheels, disconnect battery, support vehicle on stands, support engine and transmission before unbolting. Use a transmission jack or equivalent.
Why: transmission removal allows access to clutch; engine/transmission alignment and support prevents damage and ensures safe work.

4) Remove transmission and access clutch (ordered steps with theory)
- Remove driveline components (prop shaft, transfer case linkages if 4x4), starter motor, speedometer gear/sensors, linkage/cables, any wiring crossing bellhousing.
- Unbolt bellhousing-to-engine bolts while supporting gearbox, lower transmission clear of engine.
Why: the clutch assembly is between flywheel and transmission input shaft; gearbox removal is required to access the clutch.

5) Remove clutch assembly
- Remove pressure plate bolts in a crisscross/star pattern incrementally to avoid distorting the pressure plate; take off pressure plate and clutch disc.
Why: even progressive removal prevents warping of cover/plate and sudden release of spring tension.

6) Inspect components and measure (what to look for and why)
- Clutch disc: check thickness, friction material condition, rivet protrusion, splines, presence of oil or heat glazing. Replace if worn, contaminated, or rivets near the face.
- Pressure plate: check for hot spots, cracks, runout, and spring free height or diaphragm spring condition. Springs should be uniform; replace if weakened or warped.
- Flywheel: inspect for scoring, hot spots, cracks or warpage. Measure flatness/runout and thickness. Resurface if scored but within thickness limits; replace if severely damaged or out of spec.
- Pilot bearing/bushing (in flywheel or crank): spin by hand; replace if rough, loose, or corroded.
- Release/throw‑out bearing: inspect for noise or roughness; always replace once transmission is out.
- Input shaft splines: clean and check for wear; lightly grease splines with high‑temp grease only at the splines (not the friction surfaces).
Why: the clutch only works if all mating parts are clean, true and have the correct geometry and friction properties; any damaged component will cause failure or reduced life.

7) Address root causes found
- If oil contamination: replace rear main seal and/or input shaft seal before installing new clutch.
- If hydraulic leak: rebuild/replace master/slave cylinders and bleed system.
Why: fixing causes prevents repeat failure of new clutch.

8) Parts selection and preparation
- Replace: clutch disc, pressure plate (preferably a matched set), release bearing, pilot bearing/bushing. Consider replacing flywheel if beyond resurfacing or if manufacturer recommends. Use OE or quality aftermarket matched kits.
- If resurfacing flywheel/pressure plate contact surface, machine to spec, ensure correct parallelism and surface finish.
Why: matched sets ensure correct friction and spring characteristics; resurfacing restores flatness and proper friction surface.

9) Installation — ordered actions with theory
- Clean mating surfaces (flywheel, crank flange, bellhousing) of grease/oil.
- If flywheel was removed, torque flywheel bolts to factory sequence and torque; use new bolts if required and threadlocker where specified. Correct bolt torque is essential to prevent loosening and to achieve correct clamp on the flywheel for even contact.
- Fit pilot bearing and new release bearing per OEM procedure. A worn pilot bearing causes misalignment and input shaft wobble.
- Mount clutch disc and pressure plate: use an alignment tool through the disc onto the transmission input shaft pilot. Seat pressure plate and hand‑tighten bolts. The alignment tool centers the disc on the crankshaft/pilot so the transmission input shaft slides into the disc splines without cocking; this prevents misalignment, gear grinding and accelerated wear.
- Tighten pressure plate bolts evenly in a star/crisscross sequence to the manufacturer torque spec. Even torque ensures uniform clamp force and avoids warp.
Why: correct centering and even torque restore consistent clamp pressure and concentric engagement, producing smooth power transfer.

10) Reinstall transmission and reassemble
- Carefully mate transmission to engine so input shaft slides into aligned disc without forcing; ensure dowels align. Tighten bellhousing bolts to spec. Reconnect starter, linkages, driveshafts, wiring, and any removed components.
- If hydraulic clutch, bleed the system until pedal feel is correct. Adjust pedal free play where adjustable. Proper bleed ensures full disengagement; correct free play prevents dragging or incomplete engagement.

11) Final checks and testing (why and what to expect)
- With engine running (vehicle safely raised if needed) test clutch engagement: check for slip (engine revs rise without acceleration), chatter, noise, or difficulty selecting gears. Drive test under load and through all gears.
Why: verify torque transfer, smooth engagement, absence of vibration and correct operation.

12) How the repair fixes the fault — in theory, step by step
- Worn/frictional loss (slipping): replacing the disc and pressure plate restores friction material and clamp force (increased μ and N → higher transmissible torque).
- Heat spots/glazing/score on flywheel or plate: resurfacing/replacement restores flat, clean friction surfaces so µ is consistent across the contact area and reengagement is smooth.
- Weak diaphragm springs: new pressure plate restores spring force so the clutch can handle rated torque.
- Oil contamination: replacing seals removes source of contamination; new friction material is clean so μ is restored.
- Misalignment/rough pilot or release bearings: new pilot/release bearings restore concentricity and reduce drag/noise, preventing chatter and premature wear.
- Improper torque or warped components: replacing/resurfacing and torquing to spec restores uniform clamp force and prevents localized overheating and uneven wear.
Overall result: the friction coupling is returned to designed clamp force, friction coefficient and geometry so torque is reliably transmitted without slip, chatter or excessive noise.

Concise cautions (no yapping)
- Always fix oil leaks and hydraulic faults first.
- Replace throwout bearing and pilot bearing with transmission out.
- Use proper alignment tool and torque specs.
- Do not contaminate new clutch with grease/oil; only light spline grease.
- If unsure about flywheel machining limits or torque specs, consult the Toyota service manual for the 2H / 12H‑T engine matched to your chassis.

That is the ordered procedure with underlying theory and exactly how each part of the repair corrects clutch faults.
