Well the next stop on the JR tour is not being able to get the intake manifold bracket off. I just cant seem to find a way to turn the bolts. How the hell am i gonna do it?
They're really hard to get out and its really tight under the car. What do you guys suggest using to get it out (in terms of tools).
I have a ratchet with an extension but i just cant get the room to get a good turn on it.
thanks again

I haven't removed the intake manifold off a Honda engine before, but have on cars that had similar tight areas and I've had to use an offset ratchet-box wrench:
On the stock manifold bracket, there are 3(?) bolts, two attached to the manifold and the other to the engine block. So I assume you can't get either a socket or a box end wrench on either locations (block or under the manifold...)? Because you only need to free one of them (either the one on the block or the one under then manifold...).
