Yanmar 180 - Removing Air Intake Manifold - tips or advice?

[TomHall]

There are two coolant hoses under the Air intake Manifold, one is leaking.
I have to remove the air intake manifold to get at them.
Does anyone have any tips or advice?
Thanks in advance!!

Has anyone ever replaced those cooling hoses?

Hello,

If you were able to post a picture so you could point out where exactly you are needing to remove the intake manifold. The intake manifold attaches to the motor and distributes air to the individual cylinders and wondering if there might be some confusion on what needs to be removed.

Thanks,

Not sure why you would have to remove the intake manifold for the water hoses. However, removing the manifold is fairly straight forward. There are some gaskets, but they are rubber and should be in good shape. When reblotting follow the torque.
