Tempo's intake manifold?

Where is the intake manifold located on a 1992 Ford Tempo?

Where is the throttle body?

Thanks!

On the '92's, the intake manifold is the big aluminum thing behind the engine, next to the firewall. Pictures available at www.tempotopaz.com if you're interested.

I've got an '86 with CFI, so I'm not dead certain about the exact location of the TB - but it may be integrated into the manifold.

Dagr8Tim will know, off the top of his head more than likely.

5 bucks says he'll see this post before 12:00 noon. He's almost as big a T/T zealot as I am!

Manifold leak?

My problem is that myTempo starts, then dies promptly. I crank it up and it always starts again (so far), but it sounds like it wants to die every time I pull up to a red light. I was told there might be a leak in a vacuum hose attached to the intake manifold.

If you have a vacuum leak, you will hear a hissing noise, like air escaping. Follow it and replace or repair the hose. Even with the engine off, follow all the vacuum hoses and make sure they ar not leaking.
Onother thing you need to look at is the ignition coil tower. Take the ignition wire off and clean the terminal. They get really corroded and can cause you problem.

Follow the middle wire on the distributor cap(probably covered by rubber), it will lead you to the ignition coil. Between the engine and tranny, towards the radiator.
