Hex nuts removal
Been lucky so far with the exhaust studs but having some trouble with the hex nuts, whats the best way to remove these.
|
Heat them up to cherry red with a map gas torch. Let them cool and soak them with penetrant. Get a good grip with a a hex head wrench and hope they don't round off.
If they round off, you can use a dremel cut off wheel to split the nut and chisel it off carefully with out damaging the head stud. Good luck. |
PB Blaster applied over a couple of days along with some tapping with a small hammer to try and break the old corrosion. Used dremel on any really stubborn nuts.
