Hi, I've enjoyed your blog and also found this posting very useful. I'm in the throes of removing my airbox to try and address some vacuum leak issues and wondered if you might be able to offer a little help. I'm having a real hard time accessing the bolts that hold down runners 5 and 6 and it seems that you're removing 1, 2, 3, and 4 runners to then gain access to 5 and 6. Is that correct? Do you actually even remove runners 5 and 6? Also, any thoughts on how hard to tighten the 6 allen head bolts with springs that hold down the fuel distributor to the box. When I looked at the gasket to the airbox, it seems very dirty which made me think it wasn't sealing properly and possibly part of my vacuum leaks. The sprung bolts is a curious idea.
