Ok so I have a blown head gasket or maybe two, not sure yet. Ive removed the 12 intake bolts but it doesnt seem to want to budge. On the backside of the intake is what Im guessing is holding it on? I can feel what im guessing is the distributor and/or something else as well. Is there something behind the intake that needs to be removed? If so how do i remove it? I cant see back there so it makes it a pita.

only tugged on the cold air intake part of the intake to try to get it to move so maybe its just on there good. Any useful tips on breaking the seal?

 

pull the tb off and stick the handle of a hammer in the hole than gently pry up the valleys are rtv'd in place

 

tb? Not sure what it stands for but if I did it would help!

 

throttle body its 4 10mm bolts on the corners

 

Enjoy!

cool thanks for the diagram! how do i remove the fuel lines at the intake? Also I got the intake freed but there s metal hose it feels like at the back of the intake going down and to the passenger side. I think this is holding it on. How do I remove it? Unless theres something else holding it on.

 

Also got the head freed on the driver side but again theres a metal line at the back keeping me from removing it...

 

here is what the back should look like and whats connected. i think you need to unhook the steam pipe crossover. see it just below the intake. do not damage it, you need it.

 

ok it looks like it connects the two heads. There a hex head on it the I believe a 15mm fits. Does that turn to unbolt it? or how would I disconnect it

 

yes the bolts go through the fitting. just unscrew them.
