Intake etc

I have now done this job about 4 or 5 times so I've got the procedure down pretty well. It all depends if you are removing just the plenum or the plenum and the intake manifolds. if you are just removing the plenum you don't need to remove the AC compressor. What you do have to do is remove the fuel pipes from the fuel rails and the EGR pipe from the plenum. Almost all the vacuum hoses will come off with the plenum and the metal pipes. The larger hoses that go to the "F" connector near the rear of the block are a bit tough to remove but it's doable. Be careful putting it all back together because the metal pipes bend easily.
Good luck,
Jay
