help removing coil
I am removing the icm and coil on my lt1 to get them tested and am having trouble removing the coil, icm.
I am on the left bolt of the bracket and I got the outer nut off but the power steering pump reservoir bracket is not giving me enough play in order to remove inner bolt/stud, do I need to take the bracket off of the stud first and if so where are the bolts to do so?

I cursed GM the first time I did this
Just changed the ICM again hope this one lasts more than 8 - 10 months.

Not to be negative. But if you had a dead engine, testing might show up something. But since the engine is running I don’t think a test will show up anything definitive.
I think with the way auto part stores test them, they will show up with some sort of output. But under load and an elevated temperature of what the engine runs at will not be a duplicated condition.
But I wish you the best of luck and await your test results.

Don't forget the thermal compound heat transfer grease that comes with the new ICM. If you don't use it, your ICM'll stir-fry itself to death from all that underhood engine heat in short order!
