yeah, but it's a REALLY bad angle. the hose in the earlier pics you can see it's right underneath the bottom of the rear side of the plenum. Between that and the car having cruise control there's no real angle to get back there. I can try hunting down some longer pliers but the ones I've been using are pretty long...

 

nice..glad to see u got it all back together

and about that hose that u were talkin bout in the first paragraph...that is a coolant hose, but i left it without a clamp just like u did, haven't exp'd any probs yet

 

do u have to remove the black rail for the intake mani?

 

September 2005 man!!! It's a good one sure, but you can start a new thread or maybe just PM the original poster...

 

At least he searched, right?


Could you be more specific? I don't know what you mean.

 

I think he is talking about the wires, in electrical tape...that look like a rail.?

 

I PM'ed him last night, answered his questions. I searched and did not find this one...

 

Yeah, I thought of that too at first. Never heard anyone call that a rail before....

If that's what you're talking about Fishyman, then you just gently lift it out of the way as necessary as you work/remove stuff. Complete removal is uneccessary and difficult.

 

Thanks.
Yeah Sparky sent me a message. I removed the electrical wiring along the timing chain and front valve cover side.
I'm trying to get the hoses out of the TB and then take out the intake + tb together right? So far nothing too bad.

I appreciate a help.
