Hi Guys + gals.
Need some advice please. I\'m attempting to replace a couple of solenoids (dbl throttle & PRC) and am finding the going tough!
I have the uim off and also the Alternator and can\'t see how I can access these solenoids. Has anyone any tips please please please????
Thanks
unless you have really rtiny fingers (like me!), you ll prolly need to unbolt the nest from the block (3 bolts.....theres a ground strap under one of them) to manouvre the nest to access those solenoids. Just becareful you dont break the hoses as you move the nest otherwise youll be replacing them too!
dammit! I\'s got big fingers :-(
Cant see the bolts you mentioned - I don\'t suppose you have a piccyhave you? :-)
Thanks for the quick reply btw!
err..you might have to remove the coilpacks to see the bolts off memory.

this is what that area looks like with the coils missing. One bolt goes where that ground strap is...theres another 2 bolts...one to the left on the pic and one to the right. Youll also need to remove the fuel lines to/from the tank to manouvre the nest a bit....
Holy cow! theres enough space to swing your cat there with the coil packs removed!!
I just loosened the packs and wiggled the solenoid out - phew.
Thanks for all the help dude!
