Intake manifold removal
 

I researching on how to replace my cracked exhasut manifold on my 91yj 4.O

I was looking at my rig and could not see how I would remove bolts 4, 2, 1
and 5 on the torque specs next to item number 23 on this web page
http://dailydriventj.com/mfr4.shtml

I could'nt even find those bolts as the intake m aniflod was in the way.
Also besides removing them how the heck are you able to torque them to
spec?


For anyone who has done this how did you remove and torque those 4 bolts?

Re: Intake manifold removal
 

I used a 'wobbler' extension. This has a curved connector to the socket
so it can be used on about a 30 degree angle. A normal extension has a
square end something like |____| that. The wobbler is something like
(____) shape.

So you removed those bolts with the intake manifold on. Did you get them
from the bottom or top?

I must be nuts as I can't even find them all. Going to have to take
another look.

Re: Intake manifold removal
 

Go to the store and buy every length of extension, univeral joint,
wobbler extension, etc that you can find. You will need them all. You
can get to them, they just need exactly the right combination.
