MAN 36082015008 Intake Manifold

Description

The MAN 36082015008 is an Intake Manifold, crucial for delivering air to the engine's cylinders for optimal combustion. This part is used within the intake system of diesel engines, connecting the turbocharger or air filter to the cylinder head. It's designed to evenly distribute the air flow, improving engine performance and fuel efficiency. This intake manifold measures 145 x 200 x 745 mm and is manufactured in Germany.

Key Features & Benefits

This thing’s job is basically to distribute the air coming from your air filter to each of the cylinders in your engine. It's a series of runners, think of them like little hallways, that evenly feed each cylinder the air it needs to make power. It also usually has a place for fuel injectors to spray fuel directly into that incoming air stream, creating that air/fuel mixture the engine burns. Sometimes it incorporates things like sensors for air temperature or pressure too. It’s a pretty fundamental part of the engine, right at the heart of things. It sits between the air filter and the cylinder head. Everything that breathes into the engine goes through it. It's absolutely essential for the engine to run, and a big factor in how well it runs. It's one of the first stops for air on its way to being turned into power.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Well, if the intake manifold is cracked, warped, or leaking, it throws everything off. You’ll notice if it’s really bad – probably a rough idle, loss of power, maybe even the engine light coming on. Even a small leak can mess with the air/fuel mixture, meaning the engine isn't running efficiently, and you’re wasting gas. It acts like a shield protecting the delicate internal parts from outside contaminants. A good manifold ensures consistent airflow to all cylinders, giving you the best possible performance and fuel economy.
