Here is some pix, remove the air filter and housing, Takes a straight blade screw driver (7 screws) and one 13mm Bolt.
turn the engine to tdc till the marks line up as shown in the pix.
Here is my special tool. Made from 5/16 metal rod from lowes (thanks Jim, (capt Chaos))
Here is me sticking in my special tool. I love using my special tool!
Edit: No need to remove the accy belt for this. I did becasue I didnt know what I was looking for
Also the whole air cleaner box can be removed by just taking out the one 13MM bolt and the hose clamp off the intake. No need to remove the filter. The whole thing will lift out as one piece.

Wow, You've had your 996 how long? And you've already got it torn apart on the Garage floor.
If you ever pass thru Atlanta, call me so I can buy you a beer.
What went wrong? I never saw in the thread what you are attempting to fix.

got it! It wasnt too bad with a 3/4" ratchet. The 3/8 didnt cut it,
Edit: Actually when I said I got it here, Later I found out I did not. This bolt is wayyyyy the **** up there and you may want to try getting it from the drivers side also. I learned that when I was installing the clutch slave. I could feel the bolt on top and seemed to have more room on that side.
I dunno, 2 weeks and 400 miles, Maybe? lol IMS bearing and clutch

HA, got it with a slighly modified allen wrench. I feel like I just ate the bird.
Dont sweat this bolt, a large Allen fits it perfect.
