Re: Exhaust Maintenance
Soak them good a couple of times with skunk juice/penetrating oil or PB blaster overnight and before starting on it.
Heat on stud are sometimes helps.
If nuts on studs I use a nutcracker on nuts to help break them lose.
If bolt or stud twist off it is drill out and tap.
If you can get to it or.
Sometimes the exhaust manifold has to come off and then sometimes the manifold bolts to head break creating more problems.
The exhaust pipe studs sometimes become crystallized and break when you try to loosen them up or put back together.
I always say a little prayer before trying to loosen them up.
Let us know how it goes.
Good Luck
