Exhaust
Manifold Bolt Removal
Q: What is the prescribed method
for removing exhaust manifold bolts effectively?
A: The
most effective and prescribed method is not to break any of the bolts
while removing the exhaust manifold. In our region rust is a major problem
with exhaust manifold bolts. It takes heat (torch), patience and a sense
of feel that is acquired through experience. Even with that, and 1or 2
hours, exhaust manifold jobs can turn into a day or twos work because
of 1 rusted bolt. Best of luck..
