Hi, I was wondering if one of you wise gentlemen could help me figure out why my intake manifold won't come off. I loosened the bolts in the proper sequence. The first and second put up a lot of resistance. The first I have loosened to the point that it's up beyond where the threads meet the head, but the bolt is just spinning now and I haven't been able to pull it up with pliers. The second bolt broke off immediately. The rest were much more reasonable and came up with no trouble.

I've removed all the various things I was supposed to remove to get the manifold up, except for the coolant bypass tube but there should be some play there because it's connected to a rubber hose. I've left it connected because there's a bolt in an inaccessible spot and I thought I would bring up the manifold and then remove it. But the manifold won't budge.
