Thanks Case! I think I should have asked this differently.I need to get some deep sockets.The FSM said the plenum had to come off and it's too tight for a wrench.But thats what I thought! :thumbright:

No worries mate, its been quite a while since ive looked at an L98, but you should be able to do it with a deep socket. For this sort of a task, youd be going for a 3/8th" drive, 1/2" drive is overkill for low torque jobs like this, and the 3/8th" drive should fit in tight spots abit easier.

It's been a while for me, too!

I agree, a deep well socket should do it.
