elbow grease
run everyday and replace sugary bevrages with low cal jucies or water..do a small workout of pushups before bed and repeat for about 2 months....lower food intake and manage calories and fat
take off intake and have small fingers
No, the elbow is not a small joint. It is a complex hinge joint that allows for bending and straightening of the arm, as well as some rotational movement.

The map sensor is just a credit card sized sensor that has a plug in the middle and two bolts holding it in place on either side. It is very simple to replace and is usually around the upper intake somewhere, possibly with small vacuum hose(s) going to it. Just unhook the battery before replacing.
It is the small depression inside the bend of the elbow.
AnswerIt's on the top of the intake, but it is tucked up underneath the dash. The intake has to come off. I took mine (2000 Corvette) to the dealer for this. I have a 2001 and I have had to replace the sensor 3 times in the last 2 years. If you have a mechanic with reasonably small hands there is no need to remove the intake. My Intake has never been off.
It vents the gasses that form inside the crankcase to the intake. It is a small round valve located on the top of the valve cover. They are inexpensive and easy to replace.
well check the trip sensor for the fan( small wire going to your intake from fan) its what makes it come on when it gets to a preset temp check your wires makes sure they are not broken or frayed corroded if all is ok then replace fan
To replace the PVC valve on a 3 litre v 6 Lincoln . ls You need to remove the intake manifold ( throttle body included ) then remove the BLACK (intake port) structure which also contains the fuel injectors and fuel delivery tube ( F.Y.I this is all one unit) then you will see a small square box (about two inches square ) that contains the PVC valve and a rubber elbow ( about 135 degree bend ) joining the PVC valve to a tube. Now THIS IS THE TRICKY PART take a screwdriver (that is not so sharp) Push the elbow off the PVC valve and when that end is free remove the other end of the elbow from the tube. With the elbow OFF. take a LARGE needle nose pliers and turn the the PVC valve HALF TURN to disconnect. CAUTION. there is enough room in the 'VALLEY' to accomplish this. Its not easy but quite possible If You cant disconnect the elbow this way you need to remove a ( 8 mm ) nut at the back of the engine block ( between the block and the firewall ) which secures the tube that the elbow is connected to. This engine is somewhat unique Please CHANGE THE PLUGS and do a ohms meter check of the coil on plug units that are under the manifold. use GOOD SPARK PLUGS because you will not be doing this too often
