I have decided that the Haynes manual can blow me.

I removed all the nuts holding the intake manifold onto the head and I then attempted to remove it. The dam thing wont budge! Whats the deal?

 

So no one has removed their intake manifold?

 

did you remove the bracket under neath holding it to the block?

 

what he said. either you didnt remove that, or you missed a bolt on the underside of the manifold.

this guy speaks the truth

there should be a bracket that attaches to the block and the mani

 

About 5 minutes after my last post I discovered it and removed those two bolts and it came right off.

Next time I'll poke my head around my engine bay before I come to you guys hah

 

did you reinstall it?

 

No not yet.

Now the head wont come off. (sigh)
