My young nephew's neighbour donated a 94 Grand AM SE 3.1 V6 automatic to him. It's his first car. It has coolant in the oil, and I suspect it may be a victim of the lower intake manifold gasket failure.
We've managed to remove all the bolts/parts with the exception of the two on the lower intake manifold left side under the power steering reservoir.
Does anyone have a write-up or copy of the relevant GM repair or service manual section that would help educate us to access these final two bolts?
I'm in Calgary, Alberta, in Canada. If anyone local reads this in the next few days, and has a repair manual that I could borrow or read, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Best regards,
Bill

Welcome to AF.
Those components will have to come off to get the bolts.
No need to remove the hoses just set aside.
And we do have a link to a walk through.

Excellent! Many thanks. That should get us on our way. The link is bad, though. Here the long link that works:
