intake manifold removal ?'s
hey all
im in teh process of replacing my head gasket in my 86 runner (22re). so far ive got the radiator, fan, exhaust manifold stuff, and valve cover.
ive so far got the bolts connecting the 2 peices of manifold off as well as the fuel thing on the side closest to interior and all hoses off of it but it wont budge!!!!
are there any bolts or anything on the inside of the intake manifold "curve".
im trying to make my job as easy as possible by leaving all the hoses connected but it looks like im going to have to take them all out to reach stuff.
sorry so long but thanks for reading

yea i thought i should hold off onthat becuase im dealing with gas. should i drain the gas tank at all when dealing with the fuel rail?

sorry for the ?'s (i really need my chiltons and factory manual) but is it common for the top half to be "sealed" after 18 or so years of not being touched?
