I already unbolted the bolt on the side of the motor. Is there anything at the base of the dipstick that holds it in? I can't see from the starter and I've tried wiggiling it out. Thanks!

 

nope, that's it...just that little bolt. Just takes some perceverance

 

It's a PITA to take it out and put it back in. Try pushing it out from the bottom and have somebout pulling on it from the top. Worked for me.

 

That's what we ended up doing. I was about to call 911 to get the jaws of life in there Oh well it's out and now I have to figure out a way to get those last 2 manifold bolts out Too tight around the passenger side

 

#5 manifold bolt on the passenger side-I took it out from the bottom. I had to remove the starter.

#6 manifold bolt on the passenger side-I riped out the manifold heat shield to get access to it from the top.

That's what I did.
