Can anyone help me figure out how to remove the intake plenum from a 2000 dodge grand caravan. I am trying to replace the valve cover gaskets and got the front bank valve cover done but I cannot remove the intake plenum.

All the bolts holding it down are off and I've felt around the back of it and took off two other bolts. I looked around the whole thing with a light and I can't figure out what's holding it on. I pried it up with a crowbar and it did move a little but not enough to actually remove it.

The procedure on all data says just says to remove all the sensors and take off the alternator mounting bracket and remove the plenum. I did all of that and it's still not coming off.

Has anyone removed the intake plenum on a 2000 Dodge grand caravan? I need someone who has done this on a 2000, not a 1999 or a 2001 as the plenum design is different for the earlier and later models.

Thanks
