Re: What have you done to your SVX (or other Subaru) today?

I just finished removing the intake manifold. I left the throttle body on. Took about 3 hours total. It's not that bad with the right tools. The only issue I had was removing those damn plugs (fuel injector harness & the main wiring harness) from the brackets. I found extra hoses laying on top of the engine, broken hoses that were taped up and a missing hose with a broken nipple on the solenoid valve. This is probably the only time I'm doing this, so I'm replacing all the hoses. Everything is hard a brittle. Total cost with the solenoid is around $185. Thanks for the "how to" document!
