coolant leak under intake plenum?

That sucks..what gives? Anybody had this problem? Seems there are some coolant lines up under there. I sort of peered under there and it seems there are a few crusty looking 3/8" lines...looks like the whole intake needs removal to fix. Anybody have any advice on this one.

Peace,
Mahtab

Is it the line coming from the throttle body? Yeah, you'll need to pull that stuff off to get to it.

You can get to it without taking of the TB.
Just take of the elbow. Use needle nose plyers on the clamps.

That's all well and good, but how are you going to get to the hard pipe on the other side w/o taking off the UIM?

Sounds like UIM removal time. Get used to it, I have removed mine at least 10 times within 4 months.
After a while it it easy and takes about 10 minutes to do. Especially if you block everything off, and rats nest is gone.
