This may be a stupid question but does anybody have any tricks to getting to the bolts underneath the manifold? I must be looking at it wrong or trying it from the wrong angle but I cant seem to get to them. Thanks in advance for the help, and feel free to call me a dumb ass

On a 2G I always remove the battery tray and mount, as well as the A/C compressor and then I can snake my arm around the bottom of the intake to get out those four bolts. It's a pinch but it's do-able, even with my sausage link arms and fingers.

All of that and I don't know what I want to do next. |
