2003 2.0ivtec - removing the inlet manifold? - lpgman
Hi All, I am trying to remove the inlet manifold on my accord 2.0 ivtec.( want to dril and tap it for gas injectors).

Got the throttle body off no probs, undid the retaining bolts etc, but it seems to be anchored low down on the right (nearside) and this is difficult to see and access. I do not have a ramp or pit. Also do not have a workshop manual. Can anyone tell me what this anchorage is and how to undo it?

Thanks for any help

Paul

the anchorage you talk about low down on the nearside is a support bar that supports the manifold from underneath, you really need to get the front under tray removed then you should have enough access to get to the securing bolts.
