I find that once the carbs are pulled out of the intake boots, it's easier if you angle it down. I start by pushing the carbs down and out of the intake boots. At that angle, the airbox boots are not such a big deal anymore. When putting it back in, that same angle gets them cleanly into the airbox boots but does take a screwdriver and some muscle to get the intake boots back on.

Does it move at all or only slide back alittle? Can you take a few pics to show where your currently at?
