and the head is loose from the side of the headers but from the intake side **** just dont get loose am tired of ****ing shakin da **** out of that head already

so wut i was thinking maybe the intake manifold has bolts grabbed on or some **** let me just take the ehad out without the intake manifold so i took 4 bolts on top and then 1 aroudn the thermostat and 1 aroudn where da timing belt is at it dont wanna come off...i felt under the intake manifold felt like 2 bolt holding it from like a plate going to the block but i cant see only feel and u cant get any tools down there....any help??? any more bolts that go from the intake manifold to the head?? or how da *** do i take it out please help and thanx

i have an eg 4 door...d15 i belive if it helps...

 

bumpppppppp

 

You have to get them from under the car. 2 12mm's. Then your intake will come on off



A long extension makes the job easier. Or you can take the three bolts that hold the plate to the block. But I find taking the two off from the intake itself easier

 

bumpppp thanx...wut about how many bolts are on the intake manifold??

 

bumppooooo

 

bumpitiiiiii

 

ok yea you should really stop that. take the 2 bolts off the im support brace and pull the damn thing out already.

 

7 nuts holding the intake manifold on. The 4 up top, 3 on the bottom. You got the 2 from the sides, but there's another one between the 2nd and 3rd runners. There's also a black brace that has 2 bolts that support the intake that connects to the block. Take the 2 bolts that attach to the intake off. You should see the 3rd nut on the underside of the intake when you go for that brace.

 

I like that haha

 

If I'm not mistaken there's one bracket that's connected from your IM to the block. Check and see if you have that... if you do take it off its like 3 bolts. Otherwise, just take off the intake mani. gaskets arent that expensive :/
