I'm needing to take the top part of the inlet manifold off so i can add a new vacuum port.

 

Looking at drawings and photos is it just the 5 bolts above the runners that keep it together?

Is it the whole manifold you are looking to take off or just the plenum?

That’s what the exploded view looks like.

How about just T-ing into an existing vacuum pipe mate ?  :)

I had mine off at the weekend, It had me puzzled for ages! yes its just the top 5 nuts but its very tight to the gasket. I give mine a tap with a rubber mallet and it loosened off the seal and came off no problem.

I managed chaps, forgot to come back on here.

Thanks Mark, I use oemepc for diagrams 👍🏼

Dell, it’s best to give the Tial it’s own vacuum source.

Arkious, that’s pretty much how it went 😁.
