4. Disengage the throttle linkage from the upper intake manifold, then remove the ignition coil.
5. Disconnect the PCV hose at the rear of the upper intake manifold, then tag and disengage the vacuum hoses from both the front and rear of the upper intake manifold.
6. Remove the upper intake manifold bolts and studs, making sure to note or mark the location of all studs to assure proper installation. Remove the upper intake manifold from the engine.
7. Disengage the injector wiring harness connector at the CMFI assembly.
8. Remove and discard the fuel fitting clip.
