So I got the plenum pulled to do my fuel rail hose, and might as well do the TB delete but I’m wondering how to get the driver side short tb hose off ( shown with red circle around it in pic ), it has a clamp on it but hard to reach clamp under the Pcv fitting?
Any way to easily get this off

I never did this myself my car came with it. But mine just has a bolt with a clamp tightened at the bolt. This could work for you as well if you do not want to take that clamp off. Not sure what kind of clamp yours has if it is one of the oem clamps probably get some long needle nose pliers and try to get your wiring harness out of the way as best as you can.

Yea It’s oem clamp and really hard to get, I was thinking of cutting a pipe off the Tb that was under it and using it as a tube to connect that one and the new silicone hose with; would that work?

And for yours is it the hose attached onto it with a bolt through the hose? Or is it without the hose still attached?

I believe all you need to do is just prevent that from leaking cause it’s not going anywhere anymore. And yes mine still has the hose attached. I’ve had to replace it a couple times.
