If you remove the intake be prepared with some 1/8th inch vacuum hose to replace all the cracked and brittle one's you will find under there.
Unbolt the metal fuel line mount tabs from the intake and they will stay on the engine.
Some of the vacuum hoses and the PCV hose have to be removed to get the intake off. Be extra careful removing any vacuum hoses that connect to solenoids on the underside of the intake. The plastic on the solenoids that they fit onto will be brittle. Also - take a picture or map out the vacuum hose routings - when you replace them with bulk hose their routing will be alot less obvious than the preformed ones you removed.
Like Beav said, a PCV valve would be a good idea now and it will be alot easier once the intake is off.
One other thing - sometimes the intake gaskets come apart. I have reused them before but at 130k they may separate on you so be prepared.
