Help!!!! Trying to change my spark plugs!!!

Can anyone tell me how to remove the intake air duct on an 05 blade. I am trying to change the spark plugs and I can't get this thing off. I have followed the directions in the manual to the letter and I still can't get the thing to move more than an inch. Is there something else holding the air duct in place that the manual don't cover.

You need to check for more screws that need to be taken out for removal it sounds like. Havent worked on a new blade, but that is how it is with the 54 so i figure it would be the same for the newer blades.

keep lookin around the intake, you must be missing a bolt or two.

Thanks guys but I figured out what was going on with it. I had to go in from the top and remove the airbox so that I could unhook the intake from the airbox. the manual don't tell you that the intake duct is a two piece apparatus.
