I remember when I replaced my coil packs with MSD's, one screw didn't wanna come out. Just spun. I broke the coil pack cause I was file 13'ing them, but when I do my intake, I don't want to do that again.
Anyone run into this and have a fix? Solution? I searched but nil found.
Thanks!

my last 2 intake manifolds did this to me...it was caused by the brass fitting thats pressed into the intake manifold breaking loose and just spinning with the screw...i had to eventually pop it out of the intake manifold and put it back in with some jb weld...i wouldnt recommend that but sometimes you gotta do whats neccessary... the brass fitting that your screw is screwed into has defintly undug itself from the plastic..sucks man but other than popping it out of the manifold idk what else you can do about it
