Going to change my exhaust manifold. It has been on there since 1988 so I expect the bolts may not be in good shape. My plan it to take a side grinder and grind off one side of the nut or get a nut splitter and split the nuts. I will do this to keep from twisting off a manifold bolt.
Does anyone have a suggestion for removing an exhaust manifold and not twist off the bolts. Is there something good to spray on them?
Also if the bolts need to be replaced, any suggestions to remove them. In the past I have sprayed with some type of liqid wrench, tap on the end of the bolt with a hammer, and hope for the best. Any other suggestions.
I hate to drill and ezy out a a broken bolt.
