Intake Manifold

The intake manifold, or as it is sometimes called, inlet manifold is the ducting that distributes air (in port fuel-injected systems) or air/fuel mixture (in carbureted and throttle-body injected systems) to pass into the appropriate engine cylinders prior to combustion. Simply explained the intake manifold is the pipe work through which the engine brings air and fuel into itself, the exhaust manifold is the opposite, it guides spent air out of the engine and into the exhaust pipe.
