So I managed to crack through the screwhole where the upper and lower manifolds connect... I suppose I should have been more careful taking the upper manifold off in the first place, I didn't take the bolts off in the right order. Oh well lesson learned...
I'm going to order a new LIM, I *just* replaced the gaskets and fuel o-rings, haven't even started the car yet! Do I need to do this again, ie are they one-time-stress components? Because that's kind of lame : ) Alas at least I'll be good at it this time!
Also what's up with this gaskety-thing where the heater inlet pipe goes into the thermostat housing? Does that need to be replaced when you disconnect the two?
Thanks for your help!
