[quote=Tech II;6935482]$2000 for a lower intake gasket and upper plenum?
yeah mostly the cost of the time, my dad went around to get estimates from local places (dealerships mainly). This is actually his car and I'm the more mechanically inclined family member so I figured I'd try and save him a couple bucks.
question though, how would I go about disabling the fuel temporarily and safely? is there a valve somewhere I can shut off?
and as for the O2 sensor, is it necessary to use a special tool or is there any other means of removing it safely without damaging anything?
