  1. Boys Girls,

    Really struggling to remove that bottom bolt to fit the blanking plate. Any tips, tools , remove anything to make it easier, anything please.......... I'm about to loose my mind ?

    Kev
     
  2. Anything please.....
     
  3. Ratchet spanner? I've done a few with the open end of a normal spanner, once you slacken it off it should just spin out with your fingers. Bit fiddly but not that hard really. Just don't drop it.
     
  4. Take the boost pipe off from airbox to turbo.

    can you get the ring spanner on ok? I had a pig getting it on to get my forge one off and file the spanner down thinner and took 2 seconds lol
     
  5. The bottom bolt isn't the hardest. Remove the intake pipe from the airbox and use a ratchet spanner, shouldn't be that difficult really.
     
  6. The 2 top bolts were easy. Struggling to find room to undo the bottom one. I will give it a go. Imagine getting the intake pipe off is straight forward. Does battery have to come out ?
     
  7. The battery?? The battery is nowhere near it. Do you have any idea what your doing??
     
  8. Lol this.

    Just the intake pipe and youll get it fine
     
  9. Yes I do know what I'm doing. Thought the air filter box had to come out, to get the intake pipe off. Pardon me for not knowing everything.......
