    I have not time to look at the manual , cant seem to find time to get to the shop
    I do have a intake leak found it today
    does it just drop out like the old shovel bendix carb style ?
    Bike 03 E Glide efi , I stop at a indy shop I trust they pulled the AC off & the back of new filter rubber gasket for lack of better word was comming apart & getting sucked into the intake , so I get home & start spraying some cleaner down it throte (sp) & see the leak front cyl so hit it with spray & yep there it was , so now to call HD & see about the gaskets :rant:

    You'll want to remove the tank for better access to the bolts.

    No real good short cuts, find it takes longer

    Pop fuel lines off tank and be careful of the internal orings

    Intake comes off with 4 bolts, allen head, if your left side have not been changed to hex head bolts you might want to pick up two, much easier the angle to the allen heads is a PIA.

    Gaskets just pop off, slip on new ones clean it up and ride.
