Hi, I have been trying to remove the body throttle and tried a few times. I remove the 4 nuts as shown in YouTube videos, but the body throttle will still not come off or even move at all. Am I missing another screw somewhere I don't see or I am missing something to remove after the 4 screws for body throttle to come off? Please help.

Good morning,

Most likely the o-ring is sticking to both the throttle body and the intake.

Did you remove the coolant hoses attached to it?

I posted a couple of pictures for you. There are only 4 bolts that hold the body. Make sure the bracket in the second picture is out of the way.

The bolts are still attached.

After you remove the bolts. tap on it with a hammer to break it loose from the seal.
