Accord Lower Intake Manifold install

[Jon]

I am doing a head gasket replacement on a 1999 V6 Accord. I had a difficult time getting the lower intake manifolds off of the head. Some of the fasteners were difficult to reach. Is there a trick to easily re-install of these manifolds?

Thanks but this is a 6 cylinder

Got the lower intake installed. Seems you have to install them together and then wiggle them. The fasteners in the middle were difficult to reach to tighten though!

Glad you got it done. 🙂

Another way I found that is even easier is to install them with the heads off. This way, they can be torqued correctly.
