There are two nuts hidden under the intake manifold. If they are original,
they are special long nuts. If someone has changed them they are short
nuts. Either way, about the only way to get at them is with a stubby open
end 1/2" wrench, and move them about a flat at a time. Some have made
special wrenches by heating and bending. They are a royal PITA.
