Default Intake manifold question

Hey all,

I just changed my spark plugs in the back side of the engine. I am trying to put my intake manifold back on. When I put it down, it is kind of loose. It wiggles around. I can't get it to seat tight. Is this normal? Is it supposed to be like this and then when I tighten the bolts down it will seat it? Or should I feel it sort of "click" in first?

Thanks

It will be loose till you get the bolts tightened down.

Talking manifold

account for all the hoses and wires that run behind and around the manifold too, I had a connector I couldn't find it was trapped under the back side. I had to almost remove it to get it out(the manifold).
