Re: rusted bolts near gas line
Nick
If you mean the two studs on the manifold that connect the pipe. You are better off cutting them, leave as much sticking out of the manifold as you can. Remove the manifolds and have a local shop torch them out for you. Replace the studs with some bolts, I like to use stainless cap heads (allen head) they will never rust up solid again.

Re: rusted bolts near gas line
If they break off when you are removing the nut I've center punched them and drilled through and used new bolts. Always use anti seeze on the threads. The more you have to remove the more problems you will have.
I wouldn't use a torch and heat them next to a fuel line. |
