An intake manifold, sometimes called an inlet manifold, collects the fuel and air mix from your carburetor, and brings it to your 1998 - 2000 Ford Crown Victoria engine’s intake valves. When it is working correctly, it gives each of your engine’s cylinders an equal amount of the fuel and air mixture. (If your car has fuel injectors, this is where you will find them.) You can find it located between the carburetor and the cylinder heads on your engine. The intake manifold is designed so that as little as possible of the fuel mixture as possible condenses on its walls….after all, the more fuel mixture that gets to your engine, the more power you will have. This is essential to the smooth, efficient operation of your car. If the intake manifold is developing problems, like a leak or heating the mixture too much, you will notice problems like your engine overheating or your engine’s power being drastically reduced. That is when you will need to consider a Ford replacement intake manifold. A Crown Victoria replacement intake manifold designed especially for your favorite full - size sedan will restore the wonderful performance of your Ford engine.
