headfirst427 is an unknown quantity at this point
Hate to breathe life into an old post, but I am in the middle of removing my intake manifold (1995 Zenki, KA24DE) and it is a major PITA. I've looked everywhere for answers, but this post had the most relevant info for me. Just wanna know how your experience turned out Ron? Ive tried the double nut method, but I cant get a wrench in between the plenum and the valve cover area, so thats proven useless. I am attempting to pull the studs that bolt up the intake plenum to the head, and plan to replace these with bolts of the same thread pitch. Ive got the entire intake manifld loose and wiggling pretty freely, but can't get it out of the engine bay to save my life. I gave up after a lot of work today, but just wondering what the hell Im doing wrong. My engine bay is entirely too dirty, so I'm systematically going through and replacing gaskets, cleaning the block, freeing up wiring, etc until I'm happy. Please help me out, need this intake OUT!
