intake manifold question - Alfetta Sedan

["Ted Williams" <tedw@domain.elided>]

Hello Digesters,

I decided to get off my butt yesterday and change my cracked intake manifold.
It was going pretty well, till I realized that there were 2 bolts that I can't
get to with any of my tools. They are the lower, outer 2 bolts that are
holding the manifold onto the engine. They seem to be up under the two intakes
(?) and blocked by the injector lines (?). I got the middle one out with a
small socket and extension, but the others seem to have too much in the way.

Is there a secret to this? I have been trying to squeeze an end wrench in
there, but have had no luck.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Ted
