Hey man, you're going to probably need a breaker bar for those bolts. Spray the bolts with some liquid wrench or equivalent, and let it sit for a couple hours. If you can't get a hold of a breaker bar, use an old piece of pipe on the ratchet and a little bit of muscle

The oil sending unit is bright green. Looking from the bottom (you lying down on your back), it is the harness all the way to the left of the block.

ok...i think i know which one it is...rigth above the axel? its a lil caked in oil under there so cant really see color...
also..where do i mount the FPR..the instructinos just say "install fuel pressure regulator" and then give a lil bit about if its 95-96 or 97-99..but not really taht descriptive. Do i need to actually remove the fuel rail to get to everythign?
Sorry for asking questions..but this install has been nothing but a pain since the start...nothing is going even remotely easy...10 hours so far and i got the fuel pump, manifold and turbo on the car...

Blah took me more than two days so 10 is nothing. What kit is it (hahn or star)?
No on removing the injectors. Most either have it where the cuise-control servo is (top-left of the map sensor, or what I did (removed the windsheild reservoir).

OMG torque wrenches (it is pretty much a breaker bar) are a MUST for turbo installs imo. My favorite tool. I remember having to remove the cross member with my torque wrench. It was like, BAM, came off like butter. I was like, "what wanna fight bitch."

I think you either squeeze it, you kinda need to "seperate it" the harness from the plug. Sorry, don't remember.

Cool. I curse getting off that stock manifold. Damn it to help imo. When I got it off, I slammed it on the concrete before throwing it in the trash.
