How do you remove the air intake manifold on a 1998 suburban to replace the gasket?

replacing the Intake manifold gasket is Avery detailed process. Which includes unhooking alot of wire harnesses, removing all the accessorie brackets on the front of the engine( alt, p/s, a/c,) and in some cases the a/c has to be drained and refilled.The distributor has to be removed and you have to have a scanner to set the timing when your finished. All the manifold bolts have to be tightened to a specific torque. Specials tools are needed for these repairs.This is not one of thpse repairs the average person should attempt. One misstake and you could very easily ruin the motor. If you still wish to try this repair invest in a Haynes repair manual, you can get them at any AutoZone and all the infermation you'll need will be in there, including the torque specs.
