MAN 81082010214 Intake Pipe

Description

This Intake Pipe, manufactured by MAN with MPN 81082010214, is a crucial component within the engine's intake system. It's designed to efficiently channel air from the air filter to the throttle body. This part ensures optimal airflow for combustion, contributing to improved engine performance and fuel efficiency. The dimensions of this intake pipe are standard size for its application.

Key Features & Benefits

This part’s job is pretty straightforward – it’s a pathway for clean air to get from the air filter box, through the mass airflow sensor, and right into the throttle body, and ultimately the engine. It’s basically a duct, designed to handle a specific volume of air and maintain a good seal. It’s usually made of a flexible rubber or plastic material, so it can handle engine movement and vibrations without cracking. Think of it as a key piece of the breathing system for your engine. The engine needs a constant supply of air to mix with fuel for combustion. This pipe is the last leg of that clean air delivery. It connects directly to the throttle body which controls how much air gets into the engine – that's why a good seal and no cracks are so important. It’s positioned right after the airflow sensor, so it doesn’t interfere with the sensor’s readings, but still needs to be airtight.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

If this pipe develops a crack or a leak, unmetered air gets into the engine. That messes with the air/fuel mixture, and the engine computer has a hard time compensating. You’ll notice if it’s a bad leak – usually rough idling, a check engine light, or even reduced engine performance. Sometimes it’s a slow leak, and you might just notice a little hesitation when you accelerate. It's not something you want to ignore, as it can lead to more serious problems down the road. You can find replacements pretty easily online – we have a good selection at Fixparts Online, or you can find them at most auto parts stores. It's a relatively inexpensive part, and a fairly simple repair for someone who’s comfortable doing a little work on their vehicle.
