I am referring to the little coolant feed hoses that feed the TB's de-icer. They are really short, and connect to the TB underneath it, but it has to already be in place for them to reach their fittings.
The easiest way I found to het this done was to unbolt the TB, unclamp the hoses, and remove the TB first. The manifold is cake after that. Installation is the reverse.
Check the FPR vacuum line for cracks. I got a new hose (rubber, braided on the outside with a nylon sheath) for like $.68/foot at Kragen. It is not a good thing to have a leaky one.
Also, check to see if the lower manifold is all gunked up with clack goop inside. If it is bad enough that you can see the goop in the injector bungs, consider removing the manifold & cleaning it. All you have to do is loosen some more bolts (MAYBE replace the gasket, if it rips, or you do not have any high temp silicone RTV), pull the vacuum line out of the brake booster, and disconnect the 2 little segments of fuel line going to the rail. Just be careful doing this as gas will likely come draining out. You may as well replace these fuel lines too, a 1' segment will more than cover the job for these 2 little bits.
