Nissan Repair: 1999 Nissan Quest Knock Sensor, meat hooks, nissan quest

Question
I have remove all bolts on the upper intake and can't get it off is there something that i'm not seeing that's holding it together. Can you please Help I'm trying to get to the Knock Sensor

Answer
Bernard,

There is a plenum brace that has to be removed as well as the center bolts and the fuel injector rails to get the upper intake off the engine.  If you have a friend with small hands they can get the knock sensor out with a long wrench without removing the intake.  My wife has helped me with this before.  I have meat hooks and as such I cannot get to the sensor.
