Thanks Mike. Yah the car is with the mechanic now said 350-400 If nothing else comes up I supplied all the parts. I bought screw out, bolt out, wobble adaptors everything you can think of but since the intake manifold is sitting right on top I couldn't get proper access to make any of it...

I gave up and having it towed to a mechanic later today. My hat is off to all of you that know how to do this stuff and do it. Thank you for all the help you guys gave me I really appreciate you guys taking the time to help me out. Special thanks to JOEGR for really trying to help non stop. May...

If you know anyone in the Los Angeles area I'm willing to pay

Unfortunately the only people I know are busy and don't have the time. I don't have a choice but to figure it out. It's been a week already but what can I do?

Hey thanks again. DO I need to do all the steps shown such as disconnect 8 fuel injectors and the radio interference, Remove the 2 nuts and the engine wiring harness retainer, Remove the nut and the radio interference ignition capacitor, Disconnect the fuel supply tube spring lock coupling from...

To take off the manifold do I only need to take of the ten bolts shown on here or is there more I need to do once I take this part off?

I originally used the 6 point and tried with an wrench when that wouldn't work. I think because of the angle it would not sit on the bolt right and stripped it

It's not the hard work I'm scared of. I don't think I'm capable of doing it or I would of instead of taking this route. So cut the bolt as it sits flush fully screwed in. Remove the plastic neck and vice grip the remaining piece out? What if the remaining part will not screw did I compromise the...

The bolt is screwed in all the way if I cut will I still be able to remove it? Can I cut off the bolt with out taking the intake manifold off?

OK so I messed up really bad.... I took off the throttle body and everything else was going smoothly. I got to the last two screws the ones to cut. The first one on, the right screw unscrewed no problem. The one on the left has been stubborn as hell. I tried and tried and noticed im starting to...

Hey thanks again Im going to give this a shot right now. And thanks for the heads up about the serpentine belt. Can I buy this part at any auto store or should I go direct to Stealer(dealer)?

Looks like instructions up untill this part. Am I missing something? Seems like there is a second half of the TB left?

The steps seem to show only the removal of the first half of the throttle body. I might be mistaking but looks like there is a whole other section of the throttle body left aftwr you remove what's instructed

Hey thanks for the the help I read the write up on the link you gave me thanks for that. In that post he talks about cutting the back 2 bolts on part 9n499 . My understanding of the shortcut is it to remove the throttle body unscrew the bolt as much as i can cut the top 1/4 off after unscrewing...
