Intake Manifold Removal

The Intake Manifold removal walkthrough does not work any longer. Can anyone post a diagram of the hoses etc. I had to take it off during my header install and want to make sure I don't fat-finger the reinstall.

You don't have to take it off to install headers...

Edit: usually you can tell where the hoses go because they will be bent right at the connection.

Be VERY careful when you tq the intake bolts back down, the aluminum lower intake is VERY easy to strip.

We had to take it off due to other issues we ran into under the car. Hopefully I will not forget any hoses/plugs on the manifold. Thanks for the advice on Torquing down the bolts, did not know it was an issue... I will take care.

Still if anyone has a diagram, please post it... just so I don't forget something.

The Phonelic spacer site tells you exactly how to at www.nissanworks.com

You may want to do this since the manifold will be off anyway.
