i was going to replace my injector o-rings yesterday when i noticed in order to take out the fuel rail, you need to remove the intake manifold cover to acces the bolts. therein lies my problem. The manifold has allen wrench nuts and they stripped out upon attempting to loosen them. i tried using pliers but that didn't work either. sadly the person before me that owned the car sloppily painted it so i'm just ripping off paint as i attempt to loosen the seemingly over-tightened nuts.

any suggestions as to what to do from here? maybe i just need to keep trying and add that extra ''oomph''

not that i know anything about that. sometimes i smell fuel but it might be coming form other cars in the street. I've been wanting for some days to clean my throttle body and see the condition of the injectors. As my mpg is not that great. Post pics when you can.

just to let you know if your going to take the manifold off its not just those allen key bolts you have to take the throttle body off too
BOOST GETS YOU LAID!!!!
i dont need the entire manifold, just the cover. once the cover is off i SHOULD be able to acces the 2 bolts holding the fuel rail down.
