on my 4.2 I have a horribly sound so going to replace the seals at the weekend. I have read I need to loosen the four bolts holding the elbow duct to the blower itself. However I have read conflicting information - some say loosen but dont remove bolts as they have captive nuts that will fall in the blower others say remove them? any advise for an 07 4.2 on which is the correct statement? cheers Current stable:

FYI it does have some kind of captive nuts I believe I discovered last night Current stable:
