One, I recall taking off the big boot from turbo pipe to throttle body, two hose clamps.
Two, there's a tube from throttle body down, that branches off in one place from a bigger tube. The one that has a steel line running inside it part of the way. That is age-brittle and on my car the vacuum part of it broke out of the larger line when I pushed it around some. I fixed mine with silicone but be gentle with it.
Also, there's a kickdown cable from throttle shaft cams to auto tranny that I think is maybe in the way that needs to be disconnected? Can't remember if it was for this job or not but if so it takes some dexterity, also noting or marking correct position with say office whiteout or masking tape.
It's raining here and pretty late so I'm not going out to look at any of these things, just kind of winging it from a leaky memory.
