Default Leaky Fuel Damper replacement tool?

I have a fuel leak right under the fuel damper on top of the engine. Is there a special tool to get to the nut? It’s in a tough spot and hard to get anything over the nut to loosen it. 2000 ES300. Thanks.

Hello,

Found this thread that talks about unscrewing the fuel damper on a 2003 Lexus ES300, though it has different intake design, so it may not work out for you. In worst case, you will probably have to remove a throttle body to get to it.

Hope this helps and best of luck!

I got an adjustable crescent wrench on the nut but it’s tough to unscrew due to limited leverage. I soaked it with WD40. I’ll try again tomorrow.
