Wink Unable to get at lower bolt of IAC on '01 gt

Hello everyone. im new here. I am currently trying to remove my IAC for basic cleaning purposes yet have been unable to get at the lower bolt. The top one is easily reachable and i disconnected the socket from the IAC but this bolt is in the middle of a bunch of hoses, a couple of which seem unwilling to come off. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!

Both of those hoses come off. Just give it a little pull, they should slide right off.

hmm, ok. i mean, I believe you, it's just that one of them was sleeved on pretty tightly and I don't want to rupture anything obviously.

Yeah, both of them will be pretty tight if you've never taken them off. You could also use a U joint to get at it.
