1987 Ford Mustang GT Convertible Upper Intake Removal

this is a simple job on the fox body mustangs with fuel injection. shouldnt take longer then 45mins to have the upper intake off, i know there are people that could perform this quicker but this was my 1st time removing an upper intake on a mustang.

tools needed
13mm socket and wrench 1/4 or 3/8th drive with 6 in extentions
13mm deep socket 1/4 or 3/8th drive
10mm socket 1/4 or 3/8th drive
flat head screw driver
torx bit driver set

total amount of bolts n nuts
4 intake bolts
2 nuts that hold the bracket at either end for the intake
2 10mm bolts for the throttle bracket


i origanally started this becuse i wanted to replace some vacuum lines and replace the valve cover gaskets because of age and leakage. i noticed that when i tipped the upper intake down crud came out of it so i am going to flush the upper intake the best i can. ill post a video of the process about replacing the valve cover gaskets also.
