I finally got around to checking about my lower intake manifold bolts since they are notorious for being loose in the 93 and 94. pulled the number 5 bolt and there was some oil around it. the idle is kinda rough on it and knocks pretty bad at highway speed. not to mention the 11mpg. will tightening the bolts help these problems? im not expecting the mileage to increase but the idle thing and the knock is what bothers me. also, is there a way to do this without taking the top off?
