I am in the process of removing the head from our 92 960 6304F engine, for overhaul, and am unable to pull the intake manifold aaway.
I have followed the Volvo service book to the letter, and am at the stage where I have removed the clamps holding the rubber intake hoses between head and manifold. According to the writings of Uncle Olof, the manifold should now pull away. It won't. Its tighter than tight. Won't even jiggle a bit. Like its bolted rigidly in place. I have tried a bit of prying with an oak stave, but don't want to get too carried away in case I have missed something, and wind up busting it.
Anyone ever have this problem? What am I missing?
