Finally got throttle body off which allowed me to get to the lower manifold bolts. I thought i removed everything but the manifold wont come out. Gotta go through the photos again. I already removed 5 top bolts, two lower, two lower nuts, and tripple square nut. Any ideas?
Reread all the posts in the thread and saw someone had the same problem. I feel like im pulling on this thing pretty hard and am worried about breaking something. Should i just yank on it?
How do I get this dang throttle body off? I've done lots of work on my own cars in the past but mostly 90s rwd Mazdas. I can't for the life of me get the throttle body bolts out. Specifically the rear left one. There is no room for anything down there. Should I be doing this from underneath? Anyone near Fort Collins,CO that has done this?
I think I used a swivel adapter and an allen socket on an extension.. something like that. It's a bitch to get to
mmaluso, P2015 may be the flapper control. It could be going bad and the entire I/M needs to be replaced. Sucks man.
So after the replacement, you didn't clear the code? Sometimes they may stay on even though the issue has been resolved.
No I didn't and hopefully that's the case. I'm used to working on older cars and I believe they always cleared themselves once the issue was resolved. Got my OBD2 dongle today so just need to find some time to get it working with my phone.
