Intake ONLY removal check list
To replace my flappy. I've removed (major stuff only):
1) The MAF and associated wiring and vac hoses and stuff.
2) Both fuel rails (I'll also install the Ford injectors I got from Roger)
3) Accelerator bracket & attachments on the driver's side of intake
4) Loosened the manifold hold down bolts
So before I try and lift it off......is that it? I'm double checking that I don't have to remove the oil fill equipment or water bridge stuff in front. Correct?
I'm also replacing the WOT switch. Is this a straight install or is there any little tricks so that after I re-install everything I'll hear the functional 'click' to tell it's working. Nothing wrong with the one in there now but it's old enough to require replacement. ISV is only 2 years old.
Thanks

That 3 way hose which connects to oil filler neck and I think the divertor valve for fumes? Otherwise you wont be able to lift intake more than an inch or two.
Throttle cable needs to come off the ball joint at quadrant under intake.

Thanks Guys. Dwayne's writeup was for the entire job. I used it as my bible when I did the TB/WP job a while back. Now I'm only going in to replace an unhappy flappy.
Yeah, I completely forgot about the throttle cable and the oil fume line to the oil filler neck.
Now I'm good to go, will be a late night in the garage. It's only 6 degrees C, so it feels like summer here in Ontario. Go figure.
