You don't NEED new intake bolts. The stock ones are fine.

Buy or rent a torque wrench, it'll come in handy. You'll also need a new bypass hose. Chances are you'll destroy the old one when you try to take it off. Good luck.

 

i replaced that when i did my water pump 2 months ago

and are you 100% positive i can re-use the bolts?

 

No, the stock bolts are Torque-To-Yield. That basically means that you can only torque them once.

Here is what you need:

Throttle Body Gasket- http://www.napaonline.com/NOLPPSE/(S...+2022009+25010
Manifold bolts- http://www.napaonline.com/NOLPPSE/(S...+2022009+29039
Torque those using the pattern in the link that I gave you above. And while you are in there, you might wanna change the cap and rotor, too. And change the thermostat.

 

+1 on the bolts...as well as the cap and rotor and tstat. otherwise those are a pian in the butt to do later.

 

i gotta spend 50 bucks on bolts????


the bolts i posted above were 8.99 can i use those?
