         INTRODUCTION

CAUTION: When battery and some PCM input devices are disconnected,

         vehicle computer and memory systems may lose memory data.

         Driveability problems may exist until computer systems have

         completed a relearn cycle. See COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES

         article in GENERAL INFORMATION before disconnecting battery.

         This article covers removal, overhaul and installation

procedures (when given by manufacturer). If component removal and

installation is primarily an unbolt and bolt-on procedure, only a

torque specification may be supplied.

         AIR INDUCTION SYSTEMS

         SUPERCHARGER

NOTE:    Servicing of supercharger unit is limited to replacement

         only.

         Removal (3.8L - VIN 1)
