I removed the throttle plate section and , as luck would have it, I could
not see the lost part in the top of the IM (using mirrors and flashlight).
I have been able to remove most of the allen head bolts on the IM ( I have
to remove the IM to find the bolt with the hose on it that I used as a plug
in the cold start injector hole, which was sucked in to the IM). I am
having a problem with the allen wrench shaft seating completely in one
bolt. I have not removed the exhaust manifold pipe from the turbo. I am
thinking that I might be able to tap the allen shaft into the bolt head,
but I want to ask for any suggestions first. I am using the allen wrench
short shaft on a 3/8 drive. These bolts take a 6mm allen wrench (hex
wrench).
Thanks, Tex Terry, II
