I decided to change out my thermostat in hopes that it will help with my cooling issue. After looking at the threads and how too section I decided I would get industrious and pull the intake. Not that bad actually, injector wiring on the back of the coil pack is relatively easy to access. When I pulled the intake I noticed that the intake passage going into #10 had been leaking.
It seemed as if some of the intake bolts were very hard to break lose and others relatively lose. This wasn't from torque transfer as I worked from the center out using a 1/4 inch rachet and the last one wasn't the tightest. I also noticed that there was a decent amount of junk built up on top of the intake valve.
Again Im not mechanic, I just like to take things apart, this may be normal? I got a few pictures but taking shots of the inside of the intake passage isnt easy.
Thanks,
Chris
