And of coarse, I dropped one of the upper coil mount screws. The upper intake was partially on, so hopefully it didn't make it into the engine.
I've pulled the upper intake and coil looking for it, no luck. It looks like it would fall on the valley pan gasket or transmission, but I've yet to find it. Came inside to cool off before I go at it again.
Get some painters tape and cover the intakes. Don’t make a mistake chasing another.
It was on the valley pan gasket. I had to unplug the coil, and take it completely out to find that bolt.
Coil is back in, brackets are on. Going to go plug in the plugs, then give the plenum another try. Going to put rtv on the socket this time.
Make sure to rock the upper intake a bit to make sure it seats. My coilpack was holding it out of place. Put an old blanket on top of the radiator so you can jump up there. I was able to start my coil packs bolts by hand, but I have thin hands, so that may make it easier for me. Also, be careful that the wiring harness is not impeding the upper intake.
Back to square one. It looks like I fixed the drivers side head gasket, but still leaking like a sieve. I hope you can see from the picture where it is coming from. Looking up from passenger side tire where the exhaust manifolds connect. Right above the sensor, there is a hole that water pours out of.

Another question, everything under the hood is done. I need to hook the exhaust to the manifolds, and get the freeze plug back in. There were 2 bolts left over. They were in my power steering bracket bag. They are 3 inches. Any guesses?
