This is what I figured. Thanks for verifying this. Saved me some time.

hello I have a 2007 grand cherokee and one day i started the engine and a loud bang happened inside the engine bay followed by a constant High Rev. (Redline) at 6k when the key is turned over. Can a huge vacuum leak on the intake manifold cause this problem?

Anything is possible,.highly unlikely though. More likely that it sucked a valve.

@@Stuntncl9 The intake gaskets aren't really gaskets they're actually o-rings. They are held in place by little fingers in the casting. I've seen it where they've gotten sucked flat or even partially sucked in but I don't think it's possible that it would have a large enough leak to be hitting maximum RPM I think he might have something else going on especially if you heard a bang sound that's not typically something you'd hear through the intake. I mean unless there's a giant hole in the intake somewhere

On a Dakota he should be able to just unbolt it and pull it off. The motor mount thing is kind of unique to the Grand Cherokees

Yeah unfortunately it's a permanent part of the unibody, it's not a van it doesn't unbolt.

Yeah so I unfortunately don't have a lift so where exactly am I supporting the motor with the jack & wood? Thanks!

@@himeedajew can use the crank pulley with a block of wood. But honestly I've never done it without a lift so I can't really be of advice there.

Where did you place your two jack stands and board to support the engine? Thanks
