Remove the T-15 screw and 7-mm nuts from the cable shield.

I labeled everything in this project w/ blue painter's tape for 2 reasons: 1- to make sure every screw goes back into the spot it came from, and 2-it helped me remember everything I was doing, plus if you see any blue tape left at the end you know you missed something. So, next remove the cables from the pulleys. If you reach under then and pull up, it will give you slack you need get them free.


Pull the plastic retainer from the bracket.

Next in the supplement manual it says to remove the fresh air hose from left and right side of the throttle body extension. Problem is (at least on my '90) there's no room to remove the hose from the cable side. So, that comes later.

Remove TPS, IAC, and MAT connectors. Remove the coolant hose from the plenum (I removed it on the passenger side),

Your not kidding about hard to get to. Is this photo from when you had your engine or transmission pulled? I wonder if it might be better to cut the wire, butt splice to extend, or just crimp new ends on and ground it to an easier location.
