Default Hose under the mainfold.

How in the world do you change this thing. It is the hose from the outletpipe and runs under the intake and above the valley. I can see it but how do you get it off to replace? Is there a secret or do have to pull the entire intake and fuel rail asy to change the silly thing?

Heater hose feed NCA3945CD.

The RH heater hose can be replaced by pulling the new one through attached to the old one.
The LH heater hose requires the intake manifold to be removed.
Looks terrible but is not that bad. The job is a long series of simple steps. Check the boards.

I took the easy way out. The lh line that went to the pipe was a bit mushy at the niple so I cut 1" off and there was plenty of play to get the mush under the clamp. I know this isn't totally cool but I did not have time to pull the intake off this weekend. I'll search the site for intake removal instructions in the mean time. Thank you for your input!
