I am doing the PI intake swap and I am having a hard time getting the old coolent tube out. What is the best way to get that bolt out thats holding it from the back of the head?
Thanks

Lot's of elbow grease. Try spraying it with a rust eater like PBblaster ot WD40...

If I remember correctly, I just used a wrench and maybe a pipe on it to get it started.

Yeah it is a pain in the butt; but just keep wrenching on it and it'll come eventually.
