The IMPOSSIBLE Plenum Bolt!😳
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
To remove the upper intake plenum (intake), you need to remove all the bolts attaching it to the lower intake manifold. However, one bolt is super tricky to get to because a traditional socket won’t fit between the runners of the intake plenum. Use a T-40 torx bit on a long narrow drill extension to reach this bolts and remove it.

Alright, now try installing it back on 😂
I bought a used Matco long t40 off eBay just for this job. Its from the 90's just like these trucks.

Ah! That’s definitely the way to do it.
I found that bolt when I had to remove mine, my biggest hardship was lugging that cast aluminum monster from/to under the hood. Them damn plenums have no right to be that heavy 😂

Hahaha! You are right! They are super heavy!
Dewalt makes a locking version of bit holder that’s also magnetic. Your bit stays with the extension and you can magnet the bolt to the bit. Makes this chore much easier.

Their extensions are good!
oh God I hope not but thanks just hit 150k on my 96 f250 5.8W
I had a hard time putting it in then taking it out. It wasn’t that much trouble, but it was a little harder to put back in.

I would agree! It’s definitely a challenge getting it back in.
so take out the annoying one first... and hopefully you didn't need that extra bolt for after putting it back together gotcha
They make a special "EXTRA " LONG T40 KEY WORD EXTRA LOL😅

Is your a t40 security bit? Mine is, had me thinking mine was stripped out.
