I am trying to get my intake manifold off and I can not figure out for the life of me how to get at the two damned bolts dircetly underneath the manifold? One of the bolts is directly underneath the thermostat housing. I have tried and tried and tried. Thanks.

it is the oddball, use a long allen head with the ball taper cut in the stright end, lets u go at an angle.it's a 6 or 8mm. I am guessing from your other post this is efi, correct?

I never had a problem with those....allen head socket on one and an extension on the other swivel type.....pull right out.....

Put a spark plug socket on the short end of the allen, then stick an extention in the spark plug socket.......gives you a lot of leverage.

Did that make any sense:rasta:
