1. Is the IMRC the silver rectangular box under the black plastic cover and above the middle spark plug?
2. The silver box I am talking about is attached by three screws.



1. Yes
2. Yes; 3 bolts, 1 plug, & a cable


FYI: In the Ford TSP, the silver box is called an IMRC electric actuator. Also, when you look up the IMRC (in the Ford TSP), they show pictures of the lower intake manifold.
