I pressurized my intake to 7.5 psi and hear an air leak on the top of the intake manifold to the Drivers side of the center around the device circled.

I can't get to it with a soap spray bottle.

Any ideas on how to fix?

Do I need to pull the motor?

TIA - Steve

You can lower the engine by using a block of wood and a floor jack to support the engine. Remove the two 18mm nuts for the rearmost engine mounts then slightly lower the engine. 1-2 inches max as you don't want to stress any lines or hoses that are connceted. This should give you just enough room to access the area in question. It will still be a tight fit though but you should be able to reach it. I recently replaced DV's on one and I had to lower the engine to access them.
