Your intake manifold is on top, under the fuel processing system. (Carburetor , sort of). The exhaust manifolds are on each side of the block.

That sounds like a vacuum leak. Check all vacuum lines. If it's a plastic intake, the fittings sometimes come loose or the bolts come loose and some even crack. ?what does '97 Ford T.Bird 4.6 dohc V8 engine mani - a411465a-d08f-4079-a8ce-4e35db1c4995.jpg 3d76ea72-45b3-4ddf-92a7-3?what does '97 Ford T.Bird 4.6 dohc V8 engine mani - 60749eaa-428f-4970-8c9b-eb5cf40089b3.jpgc=AGCO Automotive repair service page will explain a little and has some detailed pics.

SOURCE: drivers door window motor and track broke how to

On the inside trim, you can remove screws that are by the door handle, arm rest, under door and side of door and then gently pull back on the panel as there will also be retaining clips attached and you don't want to break them. You'll need to lift the door panel upwards in order to get it off the window ledge. Then you'll need to manipulate the panel and disconnect the door handle linkage from the door handle and disconnect the wiring for your controls. Pull back the weather seal and you can readjust the window mechanics

SOURCE: "SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT CAME ON

Hi!
Your service light is a reminder and really you should carry out a full fluid and oil change with filters particulary on the Engine. If you have recently purchased the vehicle then I would say imperitive, however if you have had it serviced regulary and feel it isn't ready then try holding down the trip meter button then turn on the ignition whilst still holding it down for 20 seconds or so this should reset it.
Good Luck!
As for cost's if you were here in the U.K. around £175 $220ish.

SOURCE: check engine codes 97 ford exp v8

P0171 and 174 System Too Lean
Basically this means that an oxygen sensor in banks 1 and 2 detected a lean condition (too much oxygen in the exhaust).

These codes may mean that one or more of the following has happened:
•The MAF (Mass Air Flow) Sensor is dirty or faulty. Note: The use of "oiled" air filters may cause the MAF to become dirty if the filter is over-oiled. There is also an issue with some vehicles where the MAF sensors leak the silicone potting material used to protect the circuitry.
•There could be a vacuum leak downstream of the MAF sensor.

•In the vast majority of cases, simply cleaning the MAF sensor does the trick. Consult your service manual for it's location if you need help. I find it's best to take it off and spray it with electronics cleaner or brake cleaner. Make sure you are careful not to damage the MAF sensor, and make sure it's dry before reinstalling.
•Inspect all vacuum and PCV hoses, replace if necessary
•Check for a dirty fuel filter and proper fuel pressure

P0358 Ignition Coil H Primary/Secondary Circuit Malfunction
Code P0358 is for cylinder #8.

Inspect the spark plug, coil, and coil boot on that cylinder for signs of damage. Replace as needed.

If no problems are found with the components, check the wiring harness from the coil to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).

Potential Causes: Failed coil or boot
Failed spark plug
Harness problem

1987 Ford F150 makes a hissing sound when applying the brakes. The braking seems to work. Someone said it means master cylinder is going out.

Hissing is more associated with a failing brake booster. Since it uses manifold vacum developed by the running engine, you will hear a hiss as the engine tries to restore the lost vacum.

Have a 2002 ford taurus 3.0L 24 v dohc engine.. hear a hissing sound when the engine is running, sounds like a vacuum hose is either cracked or has come loose. the engine light has also come on. I am...

do you have a small propane torch? or a can or throttle body cleaner or anything similar? Spray the propane(Just the gas, do nit light it) or throttle body clean, slowly around the engine and if there is a vacuum leak the rpm will rise when the propane fumes or throttle body spray gets sucked in and you know it will be in that area. Anywhere from the front of the motor to the sides to all the way behind, it might not be a vacuum hose, could be an intake manifold leak. Smelling fuel when shutting off can be a different problem all together.

How to install a cd player in my 1997 cougar xr7 and also it leaks out colling and i dont know where any help will do thanks

Buy an aftermarket in dash install kit for it and it makes it a breeze. Less than 20 bucks and worth the money. You will also need a wiring kit also less than 20 bucks. Both of these parts will make for a professional install for trouble free use and ease of installation process. As far as the coolant leak its best to start looking for it when its dry so as soon as you see something wet you can narrow down where the leak is coming from. Hope this helps.

It make a hissing sound and then it shuts off

open the hood up and look for a missing vacuum port plug on the engine intake manifold, sounds like the case here, that would cause a really loud hissing noise.

97 t-bird vibration at all shift points

Yes, you can replace them yourself, it's not easy but you will save yourself so much money if you just take the time. Buy a book from your parts store on how to fix your specific vehicle, some wire cutters/stripper and a set of Oxygen sensor sockets. Before doing the work remove the negative battery cable, after your done simply reconnect the battery cable and your codes should automatically remove themselves if you have solved the problem. Good luck!
