Intake Manifold Gasket Replacement 1996+
I would like to see the following attachment posted in the Tech Section so I can link to it in the future. It's the factory info for 1996+ intake gasket replacement. Includes a step by step with drawings. Also has a section on installing the distributor correctly and torque sequence/values.

These dead links aren't dead and haven't been in months.
I also have the entire page downloaded with plans to recreate it here for preservation, but haven't gotten around to it yet.

I'm about to undertake this project with the help of my wrencher guy. Thanks for that LesMyer & Christine_208.
Backstory: Both my SUVs died, the Explorer and the Blazer so I happened upon a mechanic's repo – a '98 Jimmy. I paid top dollar for it 'cause the mech had done a lot of work and ran up costs for parts. I expected more work would be needed and I wasn't surprised.
Now starting the LIM gasket repl and since it's all exposed anyway – the MFI spider seems a natural progression.
I'm a senior and I'm using a “shade tree” mechanic for the work and now I'll be able to monitor him. Anything interesting happens, I'll report back.
