Take out a mount and let the engine hang and see what you got. Don't be scared to pry a little bit for more room

Don't call me a noob i have a 85 orc dk with full season 10 you crooked nosed **** sucker, i tried using a wrench, i am turning it so hard the car leans to one side and it only turns a little bit, no matter how many times i do it, it still turns the same and doesn't feel like it is loosening, the bolt is starting to get round from all the twisting I'm doing so i know its not because i am a weak ***.

I got the hoses off, i used a chisel tipped screw driver to pull the 2 hoses out, when i pulled it out coolant gushed out onto my hands actually relieving the bruises and cuts on my hand for a short period of time, after that i cleaned the iacv, I have never experienced this kind of pain in my hand before and i hope i never have to go through this ****ing pain again. I am going to put the iacv back on tommorow and see if i am still getting code 9 from my ecu CHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE







I'm missing one lug nut but i don't give a ****

Obviously all the extra pressure it generates through the power induction vortex makes the hoses shrink......
