Just an update, we didn't want to take the time in removing the fuel system so we held it to the side and unscrewed the 8 bolts holding the intake in, after that it was pretty simple to detach the intake manifold and "finagle" it out. However, i did run into a problem with the chosen header going in to replace the old exhaust manifold and had to grind the outsides of the intake manifold around the bolt holes in order to make the exhaust manifold fit correctly.
YES
intake manifold is DIFFERENT for models 1985 and 1988
you have to remove the studs, or remove the entire intake manifold! when you do finally get it off replace the studs with bolts.

It is under the intake manifold.
your vehicle is equipped with a water cooled manifold
The cold start valve on a 1988 Mercedes 300SE is located on the intake manifold, near the throttle body. It is typically positioned on the side of the manifold and is connected to the fuel supply and electrical harness. This valve helps enrich the fuel mixture during cold starts by injecting additional fuel into the intake manifold. To access it, you may need to remove certain components for better visibility and reach.
The cold start injector valve on a 1988 Pontiac Fiero is located on the intake manifold, typically near the throttle body. It is designed to provide additional fuel to the engine during cold starts to assist with ignition. To access it, you may need to remove a few components around the intake manifold for better visibility and reach.

Coming out of intake manifold and going into rocker cover
The map sensor on a 1988 Buick Century is typically located on the intake manifold or near the throttle body. It is a small, electronic device that monitors the intake manifold's pressure to help regulate the engine's air-fuel mixture. To access it, you may need to remove the air intake duct or other components for better visibility. Always consult a repair manual for specific details related to your vehicle's configuration.
