I broke nothing, I treat my all my car parts like I was handling the newborn baby Jesus.

Haven't had the pleasure of removing the intake yet but I suspect I will. I will have a extra handy!

Meh, I broke mine. Well, my father-in-law did, but if it wasn't him, it would have been me. Now I have an autometer oil pressure gauge in my a-pillar pod.

I broke mine right off at the base and then I spent the rest of the day driving around to find another one just to realize that I needed a j-tool to take the damn thing out.

This poll has already been done before, and really serves no technical value.

I've ripped/yanked/pulled my intake off at least 10 times and never broke the sending unit FWIW.
